James Bowen Named New CEO of Five Nines

Five Nines (www.gonines.com), Nebraska’s largest independently owned IT company co-founded by Nick Bock and James Bowen in 2006, has announced James Bowen as the new CEO of the company through a planned transition that has been years in the making.

“In our journey to create a well operating 50/50 partnership, Nick became the CEO, and I led and performed a lot of the engineering effort. As Five Nines grew and prospered, we engaged Leadership Resources for strategic planning,” said James Bowen, new CEO of Five Nines. “During these discussions Nick and I identified that one day, years out, Nick’s goal was to either move on to other interests and opportunities or retire. We also discovered that Five Nines is and likely always will be my life’s work and passion.”

In a detailed letter written by James about the transition, he stated. “I’m grateful for this opportunity and for the wonderful people who choose to make Five Nines their work family. Furthermore, I’m grateful for our clients who trust us with the management of their technology, the security and safety of their data, and the business continuity which protects their revenue.” To read the letter about this announcement from the new CEO, visit: www.gonines.com/letter.
