Thoughts on Verizon growth under new CEO Dan Schulman (Analyst Angle)
RCR
December 17, 2025
Something is starting to happen at Verizon, and so far, while it is still very early, I like what I am seeing. Historically, Verizon has always seemed to battle AT&T for the number one position in wireless. That being said, I have not seen much to get excited about for quite a while, until now. The last time I was this positive about growth was under CEO Ivan Siedenberg, and that was a couple decades ago.

RCR

Improving customer care is right move, but the ‘how to’ is key (Analyst Angle)
RCR
November 24, 2025

RCR

RCR
July 22, 2025
As an Industry Analyst and columnist for several decades, I have attended more client briefings than you can imagine.

They all want to convince me, and in fact, everyone that they are the best among their competitors.

RCR
June 25, 2025
Recently, I had an interesting conversation with Fergal Lawlor, who is the CEO of Alpha Wireless, a wireless antenna solutions company established in 2007. I believe antenna design is one of several important new areas that the wireless industry will focus on going forward, and so it was interesting speaking with Lawlor, who has 30 years of experience.
Why Boldyn Networks is pausing private wireless acquisitions
RCR
June 10, 2025
n previous conversations with Boldyn Networks, and after following their growth, I have seen an aggressive, young company focused on growth through acquisitions. Now, their strategy is shifting, with a focus on organic growth rather than through mergers and acquisitions. So, let’s take a closer look at the company, the private wireless sector and what to expect next from both.
Lessons from Motorola Mobility in the AI era (Analyst Angle)
RCR
June 03, 2025
The Motorola story is one we can all learn from. It has had its highs and lows, and once again, it is reinventing itself. That calls for congratulations to President Sergio Buniac and the entire organization. I like what it is doing today. That being said, the world ahead looks very different thanks to AI. So, what is Motorola Mobility’s AI growth strategy going forward?
Is Charter-Cox cable TV merger a sign of things to come?
RCR
May 27, 2025
It looks like cable TV has begun its next change wave. Over time, it has been through many different levels. Until around two decades ago, this industry was growing. Back then, M&A was about consolidation and turning small cable TV firms into giants. However, the past two decades have been rough for the industry.
How AI is changing the way business gets done
RCR
May 16, 2025
As an advisor to companies, I have noticed how they have been collecting massive amounts of data for decades. Until now, they have been overwhelmed trying to sort through it all and find value. Then, just over two years ago, that challenge intensified. OpenAI introduced their ChatGPT and that started waves of AI growth and transformation.

RCR
May 01, 2025
After years of struggling, T-Mobile US has spent the past decade finding its footing and regaining momentum. They were a wireless carrier that lost its way during a major industry shift. What happened next is a story worth telling and worth learning from for every wireless carrier and, in fact, every executive at every company.

RCR

On Tuesday, I was a guest on the Schwab News Network discussing Verizon’s earnings. I also shared thoughts on AT&T, T-Mobile, and the shifting wireless landscape.

RCR
April 17, 2025
Over the past several years, I have visited with and been briefed by several private wireless providers of all sizes. Some are stronger than others. Some are larger. Some are going it alone, while others are partnering or involved in M&A. Some focus only on wireless, while others include wireline.

RCR
February 07, 2025
The United States is a proud country. We wear our pride on our sleeves for everyone to see. Why not? We are proud to be known as the worldwide leader in AI. Or is that just a figment of our overactive imagination? China seems to be working very hard to yank that honor out from underneath us.
How to raise your company’s visibility in noisy industry
RCR
February 03, 2025
Returning home from a client meeting, I was thinking about what they said they needed. In fact, I have heard the same thing from others over many years.

Success in media relations has changed for companies, and in fact keeps changing. Do you understand the new rules and how to be successful going forward with both old media and new media?
