Against the Grain Productions
|
Who We Are I started Against the Grain in 1999 to integrate my creative and business activities. Over the years I have worked with a diverse collection of companies and organizations from the United Nations, Concern Worldwide, to Nashville's 615 Music. I was a vice president of HMV Records, a division of EMI Music Group, for ten years. I'm a Harvard Business School Graduate, and co-author of the best selling business book, The World's Largest Market, released by the American Management Association. Today I advise numerous small businesses on strategy, marketing, and web activity. I am on the board of Westtech Research, a leading wireless technology consultant based in Palo Alto. I'm also an award winning fiction writer, musician, and songwriter.  I was an associate fellow at the business school writing cases and a book for the American Management Association.  I was part of the start up team for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland.  Robert with Jon Bon Jovi |
