Leadership

The art of leadership can take the form of doing the role or helping others understand what it means to be a leader, and how to put learnings into practice. Kruger Technology is able to perform as a full-time leader or perform fractional leadership. Likewise, we can work with existing leaders or those targeted for growth to develop necessary people, management, and vision skills. Great leaders, as the saying goes, are not born; however, everyone has innate skills which can be unleashed and harnessed to become effective leaders.

Coaching & Mentoring

Let’s face it, the ideal is to develop top-notch leaders and coach them to be effective, innovative, and responsible. Working alongside people, seeing how they perform, assisting when necessary, and spending the time to facilitate understanding makes all the difference. At Kruger Technology, we are quick studies and artful communicators who understand the need to be clear, concise, and direct. Most importantly, we care about results — for individuals and companies.

WHAT COLLEAGUES SAY

  • "I had the pleasure of working with Bob Kruger for over 4 years from 2011 to 2015. He oversaw Engineering for me at DNN, which included an office in Vancouver and small Engineering teams in Tenerife and Murcia. In that role, Bob was very knowledgeable, extremely committed and incredibly hard working. He was responsible for hiring, instrumental in managing the team and played an important role in setting up the systems & processes necessary for overall Product success along with the VP of Product and the CTO. I recommend Bob very highly for engagements that involve the design or redesign of engineering teams & organizations."

    NAVIN NAGIAH, ENTREPRENEUR

  • "I first met Bob two years ago when working as advisors to Almaden. His drive and passion for technology and 'doing things right the first time' had a huge impact on the Almaden engineering team. Bob took a young team of developers and infused them with a passion for creating a new solution in a market with which they were unfamiliar. It has been amazing to see the growth in the team and their acceptance of the changes in work practice and process that Bob has introduced. Bob’s leadership, and mentoring, has had a huge impact on team morale and the productivity and dedication of the team. Under Bob’s guidance the engineering team has produced an innovative DEX solution, and in a short span of time. Whilst creating this they have also improved processes and product security, whilst integrating new technologies such as Generative AI. If you want to have a positive impact on your engineering and development team, and processes, I highly recommend that you talk to Bob."

    PETER STEVENS, VP OF TECHNICAL OPERATIONS

Bob possesses a unique blend of visionary thinking, innovative strategies, and impeccable execution capabilities that catalyze growth and expansion. What sets him apart, however, is his unwavering commitment to addressing challenges head-on, whether they arise internally or from customer interactions. Bob's leadership not only drives results but also fosters an environment of learning and growth for his team. For anyone looking to elevate their tech endeavors, Bob Kruger is the epitome of excellence and a beacon of guidance in the ever-evolving world of technology."

    RICK BRADY, CTO & ENTREPRENEUR

  • "I had the opportunity to work with Bob for 2 years in his capacity as the Senior Vice President of Engineering at SunView Software (now Serviceaide). Bob excels in talent acquisition, building and nurturing high-performing teams. He implemented efficient systems and processes that improved our success rates dramatically. Bob is approachable, eager to share knowledge, and dedicated to the professional growth of his team. I highly recommend Bob for anyone seeking technical leadership and coaching. His leadership will undoubtedly drive success in any organization fortunate enough to have him."

    SHEELA BENJAMIN, DIRECTOR, ENGINEERING

  • "Based on a shared history, I asked Bob to join Almaden (a portfolio company) as an advisor and soon after as Chief Product Officer when Almaden’s VP of Engineering resigned. Bob jumped right in and quickly made a difference helping to define a strategy and a new product offering in the Digital Employee Experience Management market. He then took responsibility for Almaden’s Engineering team in Brazil. Working in Portuguese, he developed a passionate multi-product organization and agile processes, grew capable leaders, plus established roadmaps and vision. This resulted in the market’s first use of generative AI with the product going from concept to innovative inclusion in a Gartner guide in record time."
