Richard Ewing
The executive who turns bleeding product organizations into profit engines. I don't manage backlogs—I manage P&Ls. I don't ship features—I ship ROI.
"Innovation without Operation
is Hallucination."
Engineering speaks velocity. The C-Suite speaks P&L. When these languages fail to connect, you get features that don't sell and roadmaps that don't ship. I am the translation layer.
