Principal Product Manager at Progress Software

Jim is a versatile product manager and a quick learner who has successfully managed products throughout the lifecycle from concept to retirement.  He’s effectively managed products which were built in-house as well as others that were provided by OEM partners and resold through Progress sales channels.  Jim has a great ability to really analyze and look at the financials for a product line and provide direction based on that analysis.  He is customer- and bottom line-focused, very detail oriented, and a pleasure to work with.
