The thing that I most admire about NetEffects is its people – the back office people that make the company tick, who were always there to help me out. The other thing I most admire about NetEffects is corporate philanthropy – I haven’t come across any organization the size of NetEffects to have a person dedicated solely for this.
Leadership Team
NetEffects is led by a team of highly experienced professionals with solid backgrounds in the consulting industry and a deep commitment to providing excellent service to our clients, employees and community.
Jack Bader, President
Jack Bader is a technology entrepreneur. With technology changing literally overnight, Jack discovered companies were having difficulties finding qualified, current technology-savvy employees. To meet this challenge, Jack launched NetEffects in 1995 to provide companies with a resource for consulting options and IT staff that meet today’s needs, and tomorrow’s changes, without missing a beat. Jack's innovative leadership has grown NetEffects to one of the largest privately owned IT consulting companies in the Midwest.
With a strong focus on client success and consultant satisfaction, NetEffects continues to be the premier IT firm that companies turn to with confidence to meet their exacting IT needs.
Stephanie Schroeder, Vice President
Taking a pragmatic view of IT consulting, business, and life has made Stephanie, NetEffects Vice President, an industry innovator. Responsible for sales, marketing, recruitment, and operations, Stephanie is constantly challenging herself and the NetEffects team to work faster, smarter, better for clients and consultants alike.
Joining NetEffects in 1997 Stephanie has been an essential part in the company’s growth from 30 employees to more than 250.

Claire Nottingham, Chief Financial Officer
Accurate client billing, immediate response to client and employee needs, and seamless internal processes to keep a large company operating smoothly and efficiently fall on the shoulders of NetEffects' CFO Claire Nottingham. Claire oversees payroll, benefits, clients billing and financial and risk management. That's a tall order but a challenge Claire welcomes every single day. Joining NetEffects in 1999, Claire has managed the growth of internal systems to meet the company's growth from the 50 consultants then to over 250 today. A self-starter, she introduced innovative methods and control processes to ensure clients, and employees receive the best possible and timely responses to their needs.
