His works include "Enabling World-Class Decisions: The Executive's Guide to Understanding & Deploying Modern Corporate Performance Management Solutions," "BI360 Book - The Ultimate How-To Guide," and "Process Improvement for Effective Budgeting and Financial Reporting." Additionally, he is recognized as a past member of Vistage, an organization dedicated to executive coaching and peer advisory groups.

Mr. Barak's educational background includes a Master of Business Administration in finance from the University of Southern California in 1999 and a Bachelor of Science in mathematical statistics from California State University of Northridge.
