Michael Ruter is the CEO of Outsource Solutions Group (OSG), a premier Managed Service Provider serving the Chicago and Naperville business communities.
Joining OSG in 2009, Michael brought a disciplined, finance-first approach to IT management. With a background as a Managing Director at Spherion and a B.S. in Finance from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, he focuses on delivering “predictable profitable growth” for his clients, not just fixing computers.
Leadership Style: Known to his team and partners as the “Excuse Terminator,” Michael’s leadership philosophy is built on extreme accountability. He transformed OSG from a hardware reseller into a strategic MSP partner by enforcing a culture where results matter more than reasons. Under his guidance, OSG has achieved CRN MSP 500 status and maintained a “90-Day Opt-Out” guarantee that few competitors dare to offer.
