Diversified has appointed Tyler Affolter as chief revenue officer (CRO).
Organisations today require broadcast-grade performance, enterprise collaboration, digital signage and immersive experiences to work reliably at scale, and Diversified has been expanding its capabilities to meet that demand.
As CRO, Affolter will lead Diversified’s global commercial organisation, helping accelerate growth across the company’s established media, collaboration and digital signage businesses while extending those core strengths into broadcast and experiential AV. He will further align go-to-market strategy with Diversified’s engineering, delivery and services capabilities, supporting the company’s next phase of growth as it expands its leadership in mission-critical media-rich environments, strengthens its ability to serve global client ecosystems and grows lifecycle support capabilities that extend well beyond deployment.
Paul Lidsky, CEO of Diversified, explains
“Our strategy is centered on where the market is going and what our clients need from us next. Clients are looking for partners who can support media, enterprise AV, digital experience and services across environments that are becoming more connected and more critical to business performance. Tyler brings the commercial leadership and large-scale services experience to help us strengthen that model globally and continue executing with focus and discipline.”
Affolter brings more than 20 years of enterprise revenue leadership experience across project-based and managed services organisations serving global clients. Most recently, he led a large-scale global practice at NTT Data with accountability across the full product lifecycle, from concept and development through delivery, transformation and market differentiation. He has also held senior leadership roles at Verizon Business, Lumen Technologies and AT&T.
Affolter has commented on his appointment:
“What stands out about Diversified is the clarity of its strategy and the strength of its operating model. The company is built for where broadcast-grade performance and enterprise-scale requirements come together. That creates a real opportunity to combine commercial focus, technical depth and lifecycle support in a way that helps clients move faster and operate with more confidence. The focus now is on scaling that advantage.”
