In Chapter 13 of 15 in his 2011 Capture Your Flag interview, international product manager Ramsey Pryor answers "What Makes a Good Manager?" Pryor, who came to IBM via an acquisition, is exposed to high-caliber management skills working in the multinational IBM environment. Pryor compares this to startup shortcomings around not technology or passion but management skills.

Pryor is currently a product management executive at IBM focused on cloud-based communication and collaboration software. Previously he was VP Product Marketing at Outblaze, acquired by IBM. Pryor earned an MBA from IESE Business School in Barcelona, Spain and a BA in Economics and Spanish from Northwestern University.
