Critical Mass Business Talk Show | Orange County‘s Longest-Running Business Talk Show | Hosted by Ric Franzi

Ronald Stein, P.E. is an engineer and Founder of PTS Advance, a California-based company.

Founded in 1995 by Ronald & June Stein, Principal Technical Services (PTS) was designed to meet a gap in the market. Client organizations were seeking greater transparency and flexibility as they contracted specialized talent to augment key roles in their organizations. As a project manager in the industry, Ronald knew first-hand that success relied upon attracting and retaining great candidates with a full compensation package, including PTO and medical benefits – an approach not common for typical engineering staffing services in the ’90s.

The PTS team subsequently delivered a best-in-class service to both the client and candidate as the premier contingent workforce management partner for the California Energy & Infrastructure market.

Now known as PTS Advance, the company is building on past successes and expanding the quality of service they offer to a nationwide list of clients and candidates in the Energy & Infrastructure and Life Sciences industries.

Ronald is a co-author of three books that focus on energy literacy: Just GREEN Electricity, Energy Made Easy, and his latest book Clean Energy Exploitations, which is nominated for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize competition in the General Nonfiction category.

Ronald is an internationally published columnist and energy consultant who writes frequently about all aspects of energy and economics, is a National TV Commentator- Energy & Infrastructure with Rick Amato, and a policy advisor for The Heartland Institute.

Over the last decade, Ronald has become the private business spokesperson for the energy and infrastructure industries. He is an energy consultant who writes frequently about all aspects of energy and economics. Through his more than 250 published Op Ed articles, he provides education for citizens as to what and why the energy infrastructures are the primary infrastructures that truly drive the worlds’ economies.

At the 2018 Western State Petroleum Association (WSPA) Annual Conference, Ron was awarded the “President’s Award for his Tireless Efforts Protecting and Promoting a Vibrant Oil and Gas Industry in the West”. The November 2018 Press release that appeared on Yahoo Finance: “Recognizing Greatness in the Oil and Gas Industry” was shared with 17 million viewers.

Ron joins Critical Mass Business Talk Show host Ric Franzi to discuss his firm PTS Advance, his thought leadership in the energy sector, and his success as an author.
