Magenta Research Staff Departures
Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief
Very good people seem to be leaving Magenta Research now that Keith Mortensen, founder and (former) CEO of Magenta Research has returned.
News of a couple of departures reached us Tuesday – both good people and one of those a key member of the R&D Lab in Montreal.
New broom may sweep clean but we hear that employees are actually tired of Mortensen and his style after only a few weeks. This is a change of CEO that the board is gonna regret (we just know it).

The former President Bob Michaels is a fantastic leader. I learned a great deal from Bob about the hardware side of our industry.
He was instrumental in leading Magenta towards an innovative approach to signal distribution. It’s a shame he will not be there to enjoy the success of Voyager. Bob is a great pick for someone who needs a leader with vision and a great international distribution network. (Not to mention a ready to plug in team on waivers).
No one can deny Keith’s contribution and vision in founding Magenta, change is painful these days and it affects high quality people. I wish all current and former in New Milford good luck.
