GA Telesis has announced that former GE Managing Director of Services Sales, Russell Shelton, has joined the company as President of its Engine Strategy Group. Shelton will oversee the company's long-term engine MRO Strategy, coined Turbine Visio. This will also include the leadership of the company's Engine Services operation in Finland.
Shelton recently retired from GE, where he led the services sales team's reconstitution to refocus on services growth. He created a global team while re-integrating the commercial leadership responsibilities from other organizations. This resulted in double-digit yearly revenue and margin growth from 2015 forward.
