Board of Directors
On July 1, 2022, CTG became an employee-owned small business. Its mission is to provide outstanding technology services to social sector clients – to see technology as a vehicle for social change. With the transition to employee ownership, CTG expanded its governance structure to include a Board of Directors.
This board includes two seats elected by and from the employee-owners at CTG, two filled by appointment of external members, and one seat filled by the founder and current CEO.
