Roles and Responsibilities
Eric Goodness is a vice president in Gartner Research, where he is the agenda manager and customer lead for Managed Services in the Communications sector. His research and advisory services focus on customer and vendor outsourcing and IT services issues surrounding business communications.
Previous Experience
Prior to joining Gartner, Mr. Goodness held senior positions within the communications outsourcing and IT services industry. His experience includes operations and field management, strategic planning, and services marketing. In his most recent vendor position, he served as the senior manager of services marketing for Nortel Networks Global Customer Care and Professional Services organizations, where his duties included business planning, go-to-market strategies, practice development, field marketing, and sales and alliance programs for both enterprises and service provider organizations. Other noteworthy roles included product marketing responsibilities for Nortel's (Bay Networks) ServiceLink service, which was the first equipment-manufacturer-offered remote IT management solution (similar to Cisco's acquisition of Netsolve, now known as Cisco Remote Operations Services). Mr. Goodness also served as the director of the Network Services business for Cabletron Systems.
