In this new role reporting to Andres Reiner, PROS President and CEO, Rechan is now responsible for all go-to-market and customer experience and engagement functions to further scale and grow these operations globally. A PROS board member between 2015 and May 2020, Rechan has had an instrumental role in guiding the company through major inflection points in its history, including the transition to a cloud-first strategy, corporate acquisitions and introduction of next-generation solution sets.

“Les has deep understanding of PROS, and he has an incredible passion for customer success, innovation, strategic partnerships and developing talent such that he will have impact on our business quickly,” said Reiner. “We are witnessing unprecedented times, and the need for digital selling solutions and defined paths to true digital commerce are essential investments. With the talent and experience that Les brings to this role, we will be strongly positioned and better able to capitalize on the massive business opportunity before us.”

Rechan is deeply familiar with the PROS vision, strategy, people and culture, and has been a driving force in advising PROS strategy to help customers leverage AI and cloud solutions to outperform.

He has lived and worked across the Americas, EMEA and APAC, and brings more than three decades of experience scaling global operations and building world-class teams for companies in the AI, Business Analytics, and Enterprise IT industries.

“The relationship between buyers and sellers has been redefined as businesses come through COVID-19 pandemic scenarios, accelerating the digital transformation of the selling motion,” said Rechan. “I look forward to partnering with Andres and the entire PROS team to help customers accelerate the adoption of a digital selling motion and grow our business together.”
