B.I.S.S. Research’s CEO Gary Wright has left his position at CityCompass, where he was one of the founding members, to concentrate on the growing B.I.S.S. Research benchmarking.
“The dynamic growth of B.I.S.S. Benchmarking has caused me to make the difficult decision to give up my CityCompass activities,” says Wright. “The Benchmarking success story now needs my full attention and time constraints have meant that my day to day role in CityCompass has had to be sacrificed as a result.
“When I first introduced the B.I.S.S. accreditation to the market in 2002, CityCompass was retained to organise and market the accreditation and reports; however, this is no longer the case, as it has been decided to handle all B.I.S.S. related activities in-house at B.I.S.S. Research,” adds Wright. “There has also been some market confusion, concerning the relationship between CityCompass and the B.I.S.S benchmarking, especially because of my involvement in both and I hope that this will now be clarified. Although I will no longer take day to day responsibility, I remain a supporter of CityCompass and will remain on the board.”
