Education MBL University of South Africa Bachelor of Commerce (Legal) University of Witwatersrand (South Africa) Why Joe Is Proud To Work At RightNow "Too often companies make hollow promises to customers. It's a problem that's particularly endemic in the software industry – but not at RightNow. Having spent my entire career in the software industry, it's refreshing to be part of a company that actually delivers immediate and future benefits to its customers. Putting the customer first is part of our DNA and is possible because we have great people concentrated on taking pride in their work."
