Roger created Career Coaching Services, LLC, in 2005, following 7+ years as Senior Vice President and Managing Director of Transition/Outplacement Services, People Management Northeast (PMNE), Inc. PMNE was one of 26 linked human resource consulting organizations around the globe and served as world headquarters.

During his tenure, Roger assisted over 700 clients in their pursuit of new opportunities and career growth. Clients were typically senior executives, executives and higher-level technical professionals.

Prior to joining the PMNE organization, Roger had been Vice President, Sales, as a member of the MassMutual Life and Health Organization. His overall mission in this role was to increase the productivity of the field sales organization through leadership, effective new representative selection, mentoring, redesigned compensation incentives, training / development and organizational restructuring.

During his 14 years with MassMutual, Roger also led a broad-based organizational transition to customer service teams, impacting over 60% of the 1800 member division staff. This bold and effective reorganization resulted in Roger being selected a recipient of the President’s Award that honored the top 1% of the corporate officers.

Earlier in his career, Roger was associated with CIGNA for over 20 years in sales, field sales management, product management, and home office sales management assignments. His achievements in the field organization included both individual and office sales awards.

His roles at PMNE, MassMutual and CIGNA have included significant human resource management, sales, sales management and marketing accountabilities. Those experiences have provided insights, orientations and values that have enabled Roger to be an effective career coach, especially in a challenging and competitive employment market.

Roger graduated from the University of Connecticut with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration. He also attended Executive Development Programs at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania and at the Business School of Harvard University.
