Sometimes in 1999 viruses started showing their menacing face and computer users were in a fix. Sensitive data like personal information was being hacked and stolen. Even teenagers were not spared, in what came to be known as ‘cyber bullying’. There was little or no parental control and teens and preteens were a soft target to cyber bullying as a victim or an instigator. Enter Daniel Assouline Montreal, the then CEO of Lavasoft, who pioneered the anti-spyware software. It retains its leadership position today in the anti-spyware segment.
The sun rises
There was a big ray of hope for computer users as there was some force to counter viruses and hackers. The spotlight was on the new savior on the horizon – Daniel Assouline. He lived in various countries like Zaire, France, USA and Mexico, before making Montreal his home.
There was no looking back, as he is rated today as a topnotch CEO, hungry for results and with passion for performance. One tends to think that his rise to the top must be by adopting ruthless means and a tough task master. Surprisingly, he is just the opposite. A cool dude, like the guy next door. His acute man management skills has stood by him.
Simplicity personified
Feet firmly fixed to the ground. Daniel Assouline Montreal, when asked about his lifestyle preferences, cheekily replied that he enjoys the simple pleasures like of life like reading, eating out and spending quality time with family. Would prefer to go boating to stay away from the phone and internet and spend time with family and friends. Time permitting he will rush to the kitchen to create some new dishes from the recipe books.
Simplicity is reflected in his management style. Put the right man on the right job, and he is automatically motivated. Never thrust work on you for which you are not suitable. After all it is the people who drive results.
Daniel Assouline Montreal is a much sought after CEO, known to turn around any company.
