Bob (Robert) Goyetche’s Summary

Parfaitement bilingue, bien sur :)
There are two Bobs I want you to know about. Until I figure out a nice way to put it all together, here’s more about me(s)..

IT Leader Bob

Over 20 years IT experience occupying such roles as technical delivery lead, senior technical analyst, project manager, and manager of Business Intelligence & Technical Services.

I’m also known for being able to build solid relationships with all staff levels from line employees to upper management.

For the last 12 years, I’ve been active in the JD Edwards World/EnterpriseOne ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) sector, occupying technical project leadership & CNC roles.

Prior to joining IBM as a senior consultant in 2002, I spent 6 years as an independent consultant specializing in JDE World/Enterprise One, and AS400 (iSeries) technical projects. I was then Manager of Business Intelligence & Technical Services for an integrator from 2000-2002 until I joined IBM’s JD Edwards/Oracle consulting practice.

My last 15 years in consulting have given me the opportunity to work in several industries : Oil & Gas, Financial Services, Pulp & Paper, Consumer products, Retail, Manufacturing, Distribution, Services.. to name but a few.

Social Media Bob

Turned my passion for radio and audio content into being one of the pioneers of Canadian podcasting, I’ve been credited with helping create and develop the Canadian podcast community since I started podcasting in 2004. As well as hosting and producing several shows of my own, I also founded ROGIC ( www.rogic.com) , one of Canada’s first podcast networks, and am a co-founder of Canada’s premier podcasting conference, Podcasters Across Borders ( www.podcastersacrossborders.com) which each year draws podcasters and podcasters-to-be from all over North America.

My presence and actions in this space have led to several print and radio interviews, and I am a regular speaker at Podcasting and Social Media conferences and Meet-ups.
