Christopher Bell III is the Chief Operations Officer and Co-Founder of StealthEnomics™.
Mr. Bell’s contributions as a business launch designer & strategist, author of 24 performance & resiliency courses/workshops for entrepreneurs and executives, and global technology sales performance record, set him apart from his peers as a high-impact leader. His primary gifts? Uncommon resilience and the ease with which he dissipates complexity to share the benefits of clarity and simplicity.
BOTTOM LINE
$1bn of career software sales revenues and 5-year cost savings have been added to the bottom line of Mr. Bell’s individual contributor sales performances for former employers, Fortune 500 & Global 1000 customers, academic research institutions, and public sector agencies. In addition, Christopher played an integral role in the Infomax $80M IPO exit as the leading sales revenue producer by delivering a confidence-boosting genomic-bioinformatics software sales revenue performance only days before a Bear Stearns final review.
CANCER CHANGES EVERYTHING
Mr. Bell was inspired by desperation after a sudden termination of employment from one of the world’s largest IT SaaS companies only weeks after returning to work while recovering from a life-threatening cancer diagnosis and surgery during the 2008 recession. He authored his first business plan while completing therapy and then created, launched, and scaled his global technology sales consulting firm, Chris Bell 3rd & Company, LLC for 10 years. The company was sold in 2017 and Chris remains cancer-free.
