The Massad Method

The Massad Method

Welcome to the Massad Method Show! I’m Mary-Ann Massad, CEO of Knowsys Group, a global IT Management Consulting and Solutions firm. I’ve lead and managed a multi-million dollar company and advise Fortune 500 companies on how to solve their most challenging technology and business problems. I’m also the author of Move from Employee to CEO of Your Own Destiny, a how to book on starting, building, and selling your business. The Massad Method deconstructs world-class skills to create, manage, and lead multi-million dollar businesses. I cover the tools, tactics, and tricks required to launch a new business or become a sales superstar. The Massad Method is everything you need to know about entrepreneurship and managing complex teams and organizations, that you can’t learn in a university. https://knowsysinc.com
