Jor Amster has over 25 years of experience creating, leading and managing high performing global teams. Ambiguity and challenging technology characterize his experience and achievements.
His journey has been driven by the intersection of two passions: business and technology. On a road less traveled, he went to Japan. In a Japanese technology company, he went from Field Application Engineer to become a Silicon Valley subsidiary president and member of the company’s board of directors. At one point he concurrently managed two Japanese subsidiaries maintaining a long continuous profitability with one while turning the other around from losses and debt to profitability and no debt. So, he has had plenty of exposure to the full spectrum of the business world, up to corporate governance.
Jor’s superpower is creating and leading high performing global teams to deliver the difficult and impossible. His real forte stems from more than 20 years of management experience and 12 years of Crossfitting—enabling companies that want to be dynamically moving from healthy to fit in order to meet and exceed strategic goals
At the end of the day, though, his passion is product management. As an avid sci-fi enthusiast, Jor’s mantra is that the writers of an organization crafting those brand stories are told through the product’s vision. Whether it’s a product, service, experience or company, his focus is bringing user delight and lifetime value to every aspect of product development, marketing and sales.
Comfortable in blending the business world with advancing technology and a focus in developing company cultures and the energetic leaders that lead them to make the intangible tangible.
