Bill Watson

I’m Bill Watson, teaching at the Roux in the CPS-Leadership Graduate Program.

I’ve had a 35 year career in corporate business which includes fairly high level management positions in many recognizable companies: Branch and Regional Mgr. at IBM, National Sales Mgr. at Ricoh Corp., VP and General Manger at Dell Computer and President at a Canon Technology company.

After leaving the corporate space I’ve taught at UNE, Husson University and University of Southern Maine.

Academically I have a BS in Business and a MBA. I attended Harvard’s Presidents School thanks to IBM as well as IBM’s Internal Management school in Belgium.

Maine is my chosen home; I grew up in California. My corporate jobs have taken the family all over the country; we’ve owned 12 homes. We’ve owned a condo at Sugarloaf since 1990. My 4 boys consider Maine home because no matter where in the country we we living we always returned to Sugarloaf for Christmas. My wife and I now live in Old Orchard Beach with our German Shepard Maverick.
