Rosemary Reed
Chief Executive OfficerRarely do you hear of people staying with one company for 20+ years but that’s my story. I started with Commworld as a customer service representative and trainer when I was in college. As the years progressed, I was able to take on new challenges and consistently increase my knowledge through firsthand experiences coupled with undergraduate and graduate studies. I never felt the need to leave Commworld, and it paid off — today I am the CEO and proud to say I’ve successfully led this organization and our clients through ever-changing technology and economic conditions. We treat our customers well and, as such, have built a trust that is not always common with technology partners. In fact, we have customers that have been with us since I started with the company. This is largely due to how we approach our customer relationships. For us, it’s not about the short-term profit gain. We work to cultivate a customer partnership that grows and evolves over time. As a female business leader and CEO in a male-dominated industry, I’m very mindful of the responsibility and visibility that carries. I am committed to being active in several networking organizations within the industry and San Diego business community. One of my passions is supporting other women business leaders because I would not be where I am today had I not had the privilege of having mentors in my life. I find ways to give back in any way I can.
