"Phil has an impeccable record of building high performance enterprise sales teams and growing and scaling emerging companies to category leadership," said Michael Ratti, Chief Executive Officer for Regent. "We believe our ability to attract such a seasoned and accomplished sales leader positions Regent to capitalize on the considerable opportunities in the financial aid solution space".

Most recently, Coady served as Vice President of North American Sales for Plateau Systems, a leading provider of enterprise talent management solutions, where he was responsible for growing Plateau to the market share leader within the talent management space. For fiscal year 2007, Plateau showed a revenue gain of 58%.
