TECHNOLOGY INNOVATIONS
Rosendin is unique among electrical contractors in that we have departments
dedicated to both Research and Development (R&D) and BIM Technology.
Our Research and Development team is led by Bill Mazzetti. It is responsible “Rosendin allows and provides you the

LEADERSHIP - Tiffany Abbott, Regional Pursuits Manager
Rosendin is proud to have a leadership team primarily composed of employees
who grew up through the company. More importantly, it is a team that believes
in growing the next generation of leadership from within. Years ago, Lisa Vere,
Vice President, told Tom Sorley, Executive Chairman of the Board, “I want to
work at a place where people actually want to come to work.” His response
was, “Let’s build that!” Within a few years, Lisa was named Director of Training
and Development – a newly formed department to oversee the learning
and development of Rosendin employees. That department developed the
Leadership Academy program. The program is designed to build Rosendin’s
senior leadership pipeline and is comprised of senior managers, field leaders,
and department leads who spend more time managing people and teams than
tasks. The high demand for Leadership Academy created an opportunity for
the Training Team to develop the Emerging Leaders Program that serves as a
pipeline for future Leadership Academy participants. The Training Department
has also developed the Surge Program, designed to build Project Assistants
and Assistant Project Managers into leaders. The active development of existing
and future leaders is a priority at Rosendin.
