William also worked in the private sector, including Fortune 500 and regional companies as well as working in the nonprofit sector where he acquired experience from a different perspective. Here he learned the power of technology in the form of computers and the Internet. By running a business [as employee, owner, and entrepreneur] William gained a deep appreciation of the difficulties, problems, and demands business people face as they deal with employees, board of directors, stockholders, auditors, vendors, and regulators each day. |
