Tom is a client with whom it is a joy to work. As the website developer on a project for Tom, I found him personable, empowering, and available. These are qualities that make a developer's job much easier. Tom had a clear vision of the end-result, and trusted me and the team to accomplish the goals he set forth. I highly recommend Tom, for both his project management and communication skills.
Source: LinkedIn Christopher Harris Jul 13, 2014Tom Borger has the perfect DNA to be a leader. I had the privilege of working for Tom during his tenure as CEO at Kewl Innovations and it was just that, a privilege. Not only is Tom a highly-experienced, results-oriented professional, he is an exceptional leader - supportive, motivating, inspiring and a great mentor. He possesses a rare combination of exceptional leadership ability, innate business sense and high-level insight. I highly recommend Tom; any organization would benefit from the opportunity to work with him.
Source: LinkedIn Crystal McFerran Jul 13, 2014As the leader of our team at Kewl Innovations, Tom navigated through multiple business challenges unique to a start-up company. From managing production expenses, to developing marketing strategies, Tom's in depth experience allowed us to meet these challenges with dynamic solutions, rather than being caught off guard by them. What stands out most about Tom is his willingness to trust his team. Tom made it clear that he was available as a resource at all times and would make suggestions to team members when appropriate, but his confident expectation for every employee to succeed in their role never wavered.
Source: LinkedIn Shayne O'Sullivan Jul 13, 2014Tom was my mentor for a year. During that time, Tom continually helped me understand what the important things are, and what the small details that should just be ignored. Tom is a “big picture” kind of guy that helps you think several steps ahead, but yet not forgetting about the traps you experienced along the way.

During the course of our mentoring relationship, Tom has unselfishly made himself available to provide me with invaluable professional and personal advice.
During our regular monthly lunches, he consistently probes to discover how he can be of service in my development. For example, when I spoke of expanding my network, he immediately leveraged his extensive Rolodex to connect me with some of the most important business leaders in Dallas. Additionally, Tom is very active in the “CEO Net-weavers” organization and has consistently gone out of his way to include me in many of the group’s exclusive events. He has also used these as “coaching moments” to help me elevate my networking skills. I have found that my relationship with Tom, has given me instant credibility in business circles- a testament to his strong reputation.
Tom’s strong business acumen and a keen sense of people influence have been refined by his extensive experience in a variety of diverse leadership roles. In both my work and MBA classes, Tom has helped me think through complicated business issues. He has an ability to ask excellent questions to get at the essence of any business problem.
Recently, Tom’s deep understanding of the complexities of funding a start-up company proved extremely valuable. A project in my Entrepreneurship class required that I develop a business plan for a new start-up. Tom was able to help me understand at a very deep level how potential investors think. He connected me with an opportunity to see a venture forum and provided me with countless volumes of reading resources which have shaped my project and set me up for success.
In addition to his adroit business skills, I have also found Tom to be a delightful personality that is a pleasure to be around. I consider myself lucky to have enjoyed the privilege of his mentoring and would strongly recommend him for the highest leadership roles in any company that is interested in creating a winning culture.

At Baleo, Tom did all the little things and big things working with the founders to launch us on the right path. He always had a clear vision followed by a detailed plan of action for us to follow. I would highly recommend Tom for a senior level in any company and especially for a young venture funded enterprise.
