Books’ leadership abilities and visionary thinking, as evidenced by his time at ECI, will be at the core of his new role. In over 20 years with the organization, he served as vice president of sales, COO, and CEO. As CEO, he and his team developed and executed a strategic plan that included overseeing forty-one M&A transactions and a successful software license-to-cloud migration across nearly a dozen platforms.
