About Robert Ackerman

With over fifty years of experience spanning government and corporate sectors, Robert Ackerman brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to any discussion on leadership and organizational growth. Robert's career began with a notable tenure as Deputy Commissioner at the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal. In 1998, he transitioned to the private sector, joining Crown Castle, a then-nascent wireless infrastructure start-up and now a multi-billion-dollar wireless infrastructure company. His contributions were instrumental in Crown Castle's evolution into the largest shared wireless infrastructure company in the United States.
