Welcome to my Profile I am Stephen Darori on Facebook, Twitter,& many other places on the web.My previous surname was Drus ( Dziedrueszyck .in the 17th Century, Drus from 1856 amd Drus from 1907 ) It still is out of Israel. The American Family branch spell their name Drues. The English Family branch Druce. I hebraized my surname on 6th September 1986 to Dǻrori( דרורי in Hebrew, دا روري in Arabic, דאַראָרי in Yiddish ). Dǻrori is a "Sparrow" in Biblical Hebrew. The "a' and the acute accent was added in 1987 for Branding Purposes. Ahad Ha'am ( Asher Ginsberg) an early Hebrew Poet wrote , " Cage a Sparrow and it will Die" (logical truth) and from here Eliezer ben Yehuda who revived the Hebrew Language added a metaphorical meaning for "Freedom" and "Liberty" .
A am an unconventional innovative multidisciplinary Leader, Marketing ,Project and Business Development Manager. I am not afraid to amicably step on toes to get things done swiftly ,on time and in the budget.Consensus is seldom painless.
Change provides opportunity. I am looking for a position based in Israel with a lot less travelling ,multifaceted preferably, in the fields of Digital Marketing & Business Development, Finance, Management & Content Engagement ."Marketing is all about Engagement. Engagement is all about Content". I have a career that says I get things done & well within the budgeted timeline.It always seems impossible until it’s done.. A nice attribute is the ability to multitask to Manchester & back with a high degree of focus.My mind is terrifically organized mind & have a wonderful memory.I can digest vast amounts of information & cut to the chase quickly.Remuneration is not really an issue as long as it is not a disincentive .2-6 trips a month is the immediate reason.
If you are are on the Internet, you probably have zero Privacy. If also on Facebook certainly a lot less. Get Over It.!! If there is anything left about Stephen Darori that isn't on the web,ask & I will put it there.

Stephen Darori Pro Bono Publico
I provide ProBono Publico Services in the field of Finance , Strategy, Digital Marketing and Branding to among others the following Organisation. Despite a long history of left wing social and civil activism in South Africa, the moment I stepped of the plane in Israel, the issue of National Security started predominating my view point in Israel along with my Zionist Heritage as a Revisionist . I was schooled in Betar, the movement founded by my Grandfather with Harry Hurwitz ( Johannesburg) and Meir Katz ( Cape Town) .I actively support the formalisation of an Israeli Constitution based on the two mothers of Constitutions. The American Constitution and the Magna Carta Libertatum. Almost every principle in these documents already exist in Israel either by Legislation, Decisions of the Supreme Court, Common Law or simply by untested precedent.
I give Pro Bono support to the following organisation and businesses
✔ Peres Peace House ( Center) The Center houses the remarkable Shimon Peres archives.
✔ Jaffa Christian Charity ( grant writer and fund raiser- $387,000 raised in 2013)
✔The Jaffa Association for Charity Activities ( strange name for a huge organisation that has existed from 1865 )
✔ Nagalaat Center
✔Arab- Jewish Center for Equality, Empowerment and Co-operation
✔Matalon Arab Pastries .The CEO is a Christian Arab that never says no to providing the IDF Military Court in Jaffa and Military Prison with Sweet Arab Patisseries when ever they ask and want.
I reiterate that I support what these Organisations do but not necessary their political motives or stated politics..

In the same year the israel Book Review was started with funding from Sir Harry Oppenheimer and Gordon Wadell . ( Sir Harry's ex son in law).
The Israel Book Review which has always been only a hard copy publication with no advertising with the philosophy of getting University Students and High School English students to detach themselves for 30 to 40 minutes from the Internet and the numerous tabloid format blogs ( many with spelling and grammar worse than mine) and read English Book Reviews Articles that avoid tabloid-ism. The IBR includes reviews of Philatelic, Scripolily, and other Paper Emphemera catalogs in every edition (1page).
Detach and give them something substantial to read." has been the one line philosophy of the Book Review and previously the South African Book Review.for over 30 years. All book reviews carry links to the Amazon and the Publisher of the Books..
The Israel Book Review is published monthly in English. Once a quarter a double issue with a specific theme is published. The demand for such a hard copy publication has increased annually.Distribution is free on University Campus and some High Schools in Israel.

3Com
Cost and Management Accounting, with emphasis on Standard Cost Accounting, Outsourced Subcontracting, Obsolescence & Reserve Accounting. Two of my models were later incorporated into other Manufacturing Divisions of 3 Com. 3 Com is now part of HP.
I joined 3Com Israel , very much downsizing my resume & making it fit with the position of Division Cost and Management Accountant. I jointed 3Com went the Finance Department was in its infancy and a shambles after 3Com placed an incompetent member of their Corporate Audit Team in the position of CFO . Nachman Shelef one of 3 Founders &d General Manager, appointed Daniel Slutzky ( an excellent choice) & after an expected bump ( first audit) , 3Com Israel achieved full marks in both Finance, Management, Product Marketing & initially R & D . 3Com Israel hit an annual sales rate of $250 million quickly after acquisition
3Com was the very first US Corporation to buy an Israeli Technology Company.It bought NCD ( Nice Computer Division ) from Nice Com when the unit had just Beta Switches and Routers for Large Area Networking Solutions ( also Metro and Wide). The cost was $59 million.
What Bruce Chefet did when he replaced Eric Benahou when he retired is still taught as a business case in Ivy League Schools as an example of Corporate Mismanagement- "downsize people not entire divisions". The entire Israeli Division was closed as one of the very first things Chefets did when he assumed office in January 2000.It was disturbing that when I met Chefets & Benahou by chance in transit at Heathrow before he assumed office, he was already speaking openly about his plans to downsize divisions that weren't completely profitable. In hindsight he was the very worse choice to replace Eric Benahou who had led 3Coms expansion for a decade chasing Cisco all the time and nipped at the heels by late comers to this sector like Germany's Siemens.The purchase of US Robotics for $6 billion started the disaster ( Benahou didn't get kudos) .

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc.
Vishay had two distinct divisions, one manufacturing core subsidiary product lines ( Dale, Daloric, Roderstein) & the other basically every thing else.Vishay has aggressively pursued expansion by purchasing companies with product lines in play. They spun off the evolving threshold technology division, the R & D they were doing themselves .I was transitioning into the core subsidiary division.It is actually quite sad. The person I was supposed to replace knew he was terminally ill but told no one (& when you are with the company from the very first day, you can can push the transition period envelop out).My patience ran out after 18 months & he sadly died suddenly less than 2 months later .Had I known,I may have had endless patience. Nobody including myself made the observation he was ill & some worked with him from day 1.Other than obvious weight loss.
Vishay Israel is one of the most profitable companies in Israel .It was established by the late Dr Felix Landsman ( in France) a Holocaust survivor as a child ( in the partisan) a Great Zionist, Businessman.& very generous Yad Vashem supporter. It received grants to build its factories in Dimona, Migdal Haemek & Beer Sheva in a smaller magnitude as Intel. x employees should be employed by the factories & well busing 5000 employees to Dimona was logistically possible if people didn't mind been picked up at 6am to start work at 6.45am , Didn't happen so amicable trade off .Was not privy to all the details negotiated by the Treasurer & CFO but "very fair play in play" Dimona is a award winning massive glass structure designed for 5000 workers who also receive a substantial sit down lunch.
Vishay is one of the best managed Manufacturing.Companies,in Israel and on top of the logistic nightmare.All production is shipped to a distribution center overseas.
Vishay is a Fortune 500 Company. Vishay Israel produces over 120 million passive electronic components daily & employs over 8500 people on Israel.

In a bombastic "Apocalypse Now" ( the movie came later) helicopter gunship formation , South Africa launched a massive attack on the MPLA . In the open 5-10 minutes 7 SADF gunships were destroyed by 9K32 “Strela-2” shoulder fired Russian Missiles. Not another SADF helicopter again entered Angola .

Kimberly ( Big Hole of .fame) was the home base of 11 Commando.Honest to god truth, joined the Recce Commandos, & really expected to sit on my backside , suntanning, drinking beer & reading all the English Classics.This was a character building lesson in survival. The Recce Commando like 11 Commando originated during the Anglo Boer War.The Recce Commando first saw action at Spion Kop (Anglo Boer War)on 24th January 1900. 11 Commando was created by the British to counter the very mobile (mounted) Boer Recce Commandos & went toe to toe with the later during the Guerrilla War phase of the Anglo Boer War, November 1900 to May 1902 until the Transvaal Republic surrendered at Vereeniging on 31st May 1902. The agreement was signed ,by the Generals De Wet & Kitchener.

MSc Computer Science, Computer Science ( database management and languages seldom used anymore), Cum Laude ( they were been generous)
This was the first "accredited on line degree" to be recognized by the Education Ministry in Israel. It was an experiment I undertook for the Pedagogical Department of Ort Israel. Assignments were submitted with a scaled down version of Wordperfect and an early Zip ( compression program) . The Internet quite frankly did not have enough broadband . Only half the assignments were submitted over the Internet , the rest bounced and were submitted by Courier Service. The Courses revolved round Database Management and Internet Technology which of course have come a long way since then. Among the languages also studied in this degree were Pascal, an early version of C , COBOL, RPG ( for the IBM AS 400) and Fortran and an early version of Basic .That constituted a high % of the then languages. Today there are 1000's and many have been ported to Windows.net and Linux. Part of the degree revolved round identifying viruses and there was even an exercise to actually write one =:)

Txt message is preferable to voice mail..Postal Address: P.O.Box 41026, Tel Aviv ,6141001, IsraelA Cute and a Silly Tongue in Cheek Postscript : In 1962 , Professor Ethel Drus ( my aunt, my father's sister and three times winner of the Alexander Prize for History, the equivalent of the Mitchell prize for Mathematics) spent 3 months researching disintegrating Proclamations ( Letters Patent ) that had been traditionally handed down in the Drues/Drus family. I am the hereditary Baron of Kraków , ( hmmm , can't help smiling) that was created in 1732 in an exchange for a very significant contribution by Drues of Mejzugola to the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth 's Monarch Budget . This custom was started by King Henry VIII of England Rich land owners were rewarded with Aristocracy Titles for significant contributions to the King's Budget. I am also the hereditary Count Dziedreuszycka , the Ordynat of Poturzyca, Zarzecze, Kramarzowka, Markpol, Gluszyn, Wiry and Szczytnik estates. The Count was the eldest son of Drues of Mejzugola and was excommunicated from the family when he married a shiksa , the youngest daughter of the then Monarch . Like in France, German, Austria and elsewhere , aristocracy titles came to an end when the 2nd Polish Republic was created by the Treaty of Versailles. The first Count had no issues and the property was returned to the Monarch. The title passed down ?? At least theoretically. Now I am giggling. Both titles have nice Coat of Arms .The Count's has a Star of David instead of a cross, a pointer to his heritage. Have a check at it.
