EspañolCHARLES O. ROSSOTTI
'Charles O. Rossotti' (born 1941) is an American businessman, and former Commissioner of Internal Revenue. Rossotti is a graduate of Georgetown University (A.B., Economics, 1962) and Harvard Business School (MBA, 1964).
After obtaining his MBA, Rossotti went to work for the Office of the Secretary of Defense. From 1965 to 1969, Rossotti worked for Robert S. McNamara, becoming Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Systems Analysis at age twenty-nine.
In 1970, Rossotti and several DOD colleagues co-founded American Management Systems, a technology and management consulting firm. Rossotti served as Chief Executive Officer from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s.
In 1997 Rossotti was named Commissioner of Internal Revenue by then President Bill Clinton. He served for 5 years.
His IRS tenure was marked by both success and controversy. He was considered a reformer, upgrading the agency's technology, as well as turning the IRS into a more customer service oriented agency. However, a waiver from the Clinton administration that allowed him to retain his AMS stock led to charges of conflict to interest. [1]
After leaving the IRS Rossotti joined The Carlyle Group, a global private equity firm in Washington, D.C., as a Senior Advisor.
Rossotti is the author of two books:
★ ''Modernizing America's Tax Agency'' (2000)
★ ''Many Unhappy Returns: One Man's Quest To Turn Around The Most Unpopular Organization In America (Leadership for the Common Good)'' (Cambridge: Harvard Business School Press, 2005)
In addition, he provided a forward to Al Gore's ''Reinventing Service At The IRS: Report Of The Customer Service Task Force National Performance Review'' (1997). He has also authored government publications and contributed to other works.
