About Bill Lee

Posted by Bill Lee on May 1, 2006 at 08:16 AM

I've been bringing together top Customer Reference (CR) professionals since early in 2005. I'm proud to say that my event, Customer Reference Forum has become the event for the CR community, attracting many of the top programs in the world, including Hewlett-Packard, Microsoft, Intel, Oracle, SAP, SAS, Research in Motion, Hyperion, NetSuite, VeriSign, IBM, EDS, Mercury and dozens of other top firms. I've worked in this space for several years for some great clients such as HP, Lucent Technologies, Network Appliances, IBM and other firms. I've written for a number of publications, including The Wall Street Journal, Executive Excellence and Organizational Dynamics and also wrote a book in the late 1990's called Mavericks in the Workplace published by Oxford University Press. The last time I checked, you could still get it on Amazon for around a buck!
