Ron Bell’s Summary

With more than 8.5 years' experience helping to manage the law department at one of the world's largest internet portals, I am passionately committed to building high-performance, motivated, highly-skilled legal teams that help businesspeople solve complex problems in creative, practical ways.

I am blessed to lead the exceptional team of 35+ legal professionals that negotiates and drafts all commercial contracts for Yahoo! Inc. in the U.S., including strategic alliances, content, advertising, and technology licenses. I managed the company's patent function for three years and now serve on Yahoo!'s intellectual property asset management board.

My management philosophy boils down to this:

* Hire the best people in the industry.
* Provide clear direction, motivation, opportunity, and support.
* Foster an entrepreneurial, proactive, solutions-oriented culture.
* Support their professional development and aspirations.
* Recognize and celebrate personal achievements and milestones of all kinds.
* Have fun!
