NEW YORK, N.Y., May 29 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- International business performance consultancy, McKinney Rogers, whose American operation is headquartered in New York City, announced today the appointment of Sir Robert Fry KCB CBE as a non-executive director. In this new role, Sir Rob will bring a wealth of strategic planning expertise to McKinney Rogers, from his vast experience at the highest levels of business, the armed forces and government.
Sir Rob is a vice president at the EDS Corporation, running the company's defense services business and holding commercial portfolios in the Middle East and Africa.
Prior to his career in business, Sir Rob enjoyed an exceptional military record which included command of everything from a Special Forces detachment to the Royal Marines.
