Jonathan Rotenberg – Wiki, Bio, Age, Wife, Net Worth

Since 2012, Jonathan has been an executive coach. He works with senior executives on leadership development and developing high-performance organizations.

Before his twenty-first birthday, Rotenberg had been profiled in The Wall Street Journal (front page), PEOPLE, InfoWorld, The New York Times, BusinessWeek, The Boston Globe and TIME magazine, and on CBS Evening News. In 1990, Jonathan moved from president of the BCS to become its chairman.

In 1984, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak made the first public presentation of the Macintosh at the BCS. Mitch Kapor introduced Lotus 1-2-3. Dozens of industry leaders — from Bill Gates to Michael Dell, Nolan Bushnell to Esther Dyson, Ray Kurzweil to Sherry Turkle, Seymour Papert to Dan Bricklin — came each month to connect with BCS members. The Society developed more than a hundred user and special-interest subgroups, many of which became the largest of their kind in the world. It published over 20 publications and sponsored nearly a hundred educational programs each month.

Jonathan began his career in management consulting at a Cambridge, Massachusetts consulting firm, Monitor Group, which was founded in 1983 by six entrepreneurs with Harvard Business School ties.[3] He was with Monitor from 1991 to 1999. Jonathan became a strategy consultant with internet consulting firm Viant Inc. in 1999. He later joined Fair Isaac Corp. and was co-leader of its management consulting organization.

Jonathan is writing a book called My Teacher Steve Jobs. The book is about his friendship from 1981 – 2011 with Apple founder Steve Jobs, and what Jobs taught him about idealism, spirituality and leadership. A first chapter of the book was published by High Tech History.

Rotenberg cofounded an organization to demystify personal computers called The Boston Computer Society, popularly known as the BCS. He was its president from 1977 to 1990. During that period, the Society became the leading international forum where personal computer companies unveiled groundbreaking new products and technologies to the public. For example, in 1979 Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston introduced the first spreadsheet program, VisiCalc.
