Job Titles:
- CEO
- Co - Founder
- Managing Partner
Joe Cellucci, CEO, Managing Partner, and co-founder of Enable, has built a company dedicated to solving customers' hard problems and being the trusted advisor to its clients for the long-term. With over an 80% retention rate, client loyalty is a testament to Enable and Joe's success at doing just that.
With a start in IT consulting, and then quickly moving into CEO roles, Joe knew he wanted to found a consultancy with a transparent, honest, and people-focused culture. "We founded Enable to be an organization that doesn't just solve the problem at hand but fixes the underlying issue," says Joe. "Without that you're just another consultancy. The goal is to leave behind a result, not a reason to go elsewhere."
Joe credits the company's strong culture as the reason for surviving the ups and downs of business for the past 20+ years. Due to its project-based business model, consultants come and go with some frequency depending on the skill sets needed. Joe has found that the ones who stay are aligned with Enable's goals, creating a uniquely collaborative, talent-nurturing environment in an industry not known for that.
Joe is a self-proclaimed technology nut, listening to podcasts and keeping up with the latest technology advances. In his rare moments of down time Joe enjoys playing golf, where he can be alone and focused, not worrying about anything other than lining up his next shot. His attraction to golf - notoriously "Easy to Learn, Impossible to Master" - helps with his consulting work. He's adept at approaching unknown situations with thoughtful consideration of all angles, never settling to just repeat what worked in the past. He, and each member of the Enable team, is dedicated to searching for new, better solutions to each problem faced.
Prior to co-founding Enable in 2002, Joe was CEO of ProCaveo, Inc., where he led the repositioning of the company, focusing it on security and business integration. Previously, Joe spent five years at CoreTech Consulting Group, an information technology consulting firm, where he served in various positions, including Chief e-Business Officer, Director of Marketing and Practice Manager for the electronic business technologies and application services consulting practices.
Joe has presented at a number of leading industry conferences and has written or been interviewed for several articles for national technical publications. Joe has delivered a national series of seminars and served as an adjunct professor and coordinator for the e-business curriculum for New York University, Philadelphia University, and Gwynedd Mercy College.
Job Titles:
- Executive Vice President of Consulting Services
Sherry French, Executive Vice President of Consulting Services, provides strategic IT consulting to Enable's clients, and is responsible for all aspects of delivering a high quality, timely, and fitting solution to each client's unique challenge.
She brings to Enable 30 years' experience in building and leading strong technology and development teams, developing software systems, and leading strategic IT programs and projects to a successful result. She credits her rare blend of strategic vision with technical skills to her years as part of the Digital VMS development team, coupled with her experience running several software companies over the years. Sherry holds several patents from her work in software development.
Sherry is hands-on in seeing strategies implemented successfully. A typical day will see her giving architecture and system guidance to the project managers, business analysts, and tech architects who report into her. She's a problem solver with a natural aptitude for technology. "Taking complex concepts and making them simple, bringing order out of chaos, comes naturally to me," says Sherry. Solving clients' problems, however that looks or whatever that involves, is paramount to Sherry and the entire Enable team.
Sherry loves being outdoors, riding and competing her horse, or training her dogs for competition. Training her animals has taught her a different way of communicating. "It forces clarity," says Sherry. "Working with animals teaches you humility and patience," two qualities that showcase why Sherry is so effective at her job.
