Bob Rosen is the former owner of six graphic arts companies whose career began on Wall Street, where he was an investment banker.

Educated at Harvard College and NYU Graduate School of Business Administration, Bob acquired and operated his graphic arts companies over a period of ten years, selling them in 1986.

Bob tried retirement and hated it, so he formed Rosen Associates in 1987 to meet the graphic arts industry’s need for consulting services on top management issues. The firm’s concept has been validated over its twenty years of operations – during which it has provided advisory services to the senior managers of more than 550 graphic arts companies.

Bob is WhatTheyThink.com’s columnist on CEO issues, and is the author of the groundbreaking book for industry CEOs – The Graphic Arts CEO. His articles have appeared in virtually every industry publication, and he has long been the industry’s most widely published and quoted authority on mergers.

Bob is a frequent speaker on printing management topics throughout North America. He originated the industry’s only CEO Course and Financial Management Course, and has served as a faculty member of all of the industry’s executive development programs. 

Long active in industry affairs, Bob served as President of New Jersey’s Association for the Graphic Arts, as a Director of Printing Industry of Metropolitan New York, as a member of PIA’s National Manufacturing Management Committee, and as an advisor to PIA’s Financial Executives Group ("PIFE").
