Duncan Wyeth

Throughout a career that spans the best part of 40 years, I have seen the full extent to which IT has revolutionized the business accounting process. From the initial impact of the mainframe, the mass adoption of the PC, and the current clamor for the cloud, business processes that were traditionally labor-intensive can now be done free of any human interaction. Now I focus on helping businesses drive savings through automation, reducing the manual effort that is wasted on transaction processing and refocusing that effort on profitable areas of the business. And while I’m at it, I do try to have some fun along the way.

MICHAEL T. STRAMAGLIO

Industry Leader

Michael T. Stramaglio is a well-known and respected industry leader with more than 45 years of experience in the office imaging & technology channel. However, many of you know him simply as, Mike! Most recently, Mike was President of MWA FORZA business unit after Konica Minolta’s acquisition of MWA Intelligence, Inc. in July of 2018.

“Founding MWA Intelligence, developing the FORZA ERP solution, and seeing it acquired by Konica Minolta where it will be an important component of their Workplace of the Future, was a goal I’d spent many years working toward,” said Stramaglio. “Now that FORZA is well situated in the channel with a solid team in place to continue its development and implementation, it’s time for me to move onto something new. I want to put my experience and knowledge to work to help others in this critical time.” And that is exactly what Mike decided to do!

Mike has served the imaging channel well and his roles range in complexity from President & CEO of MWA Intelligence, Inc., President/COO of Hitachi Koki International, VP of America Sales (Ricoh), to VP of Business Equipment Division (Minolta). He has traveled the world throughout his career and has been responsible for full P&L, engineering, sales, operation, marketing, partnerships, and much more. Additionally, he was responsible for offices and employees in the Americas, London, Dublin, Dusseldorf, Milan, Portugal, Romania, Sydney, and others. He has invested a great deal of his career visiting other country managers and considers his international travel as a cornerstone of his career.

Stramaglio has taken a no-time-off attitude and is eager to bring his knowledge, expertise, and skill-set to the imaging channel but in a much different role as Stramaglio Consulting!
