A seasoned veteran at Apple Inc., where he served as the Director, Worldwide Strategy – Direct Sales, Service, & Operations, Wellen, who specializes in helping companies design and deliver world-class service experiences that exceed customer expectations, brings a global perspective from leading teams and managing extensive vendor partner networks throughout organizations in Europe, Asia, and the Americas.  Prior to Apple Inc., Wellen held leadership roles at CDW, CareerTrack Seminars, and AT&T.  His more than 35 years in service delivery will help direct new customer initiatives with an emphasis on ensuring that 6Connex’s customers and partners can optimize the value of 6Connex virtual environments across different use cases and applications.

 

Jönsson brings his more than 20 years of experience in online environments to 6Connex, where he has supported the strategy, development, and growth for the EMEA and APAC regions for the last 7 years. Already fostering a legion of happy customers and building a sustainable growth trajectory, Jönsson is experienced in all virtual engagement tools and has an in-depth understanding of customers’ requirements and the benefits of leveraging a virtual environment. He is also imbuing the 6Connex culture with a spirit of teamwork and collaboration, a skillset honed from leading teams in both Singapore and London at well-known organizations including ON24 and Virtue Broadcasting (now WorldTV). Jönsson will apply his industry knowledge and experience to drive further product innovation at 6Connex.
