DALLAS, July 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tango, the leading provider of cloud-based real estate and facilities management software solutions, today announced the appointment of Ammon Lesher as its new Chief Executive Officer.
Ammon brings more than a decade of leadership experience building and scaling companies that serve the built environment. He has held various leadership roles across go-to-market and operations functions, most recently at Infotech and Gordian, where he helped grow the company tenfold through a combination of organic growth and strategic acquisitions.
Every day, Tango’s clients decide whether to renew a lease, consolidate a floor, open a new store, or wait. Those decisions compound. A single choice in one location can affect portfolio costs, capital planning, sustainability goals, and business performance across the organization. Tango brings that picture together, so those decisions are made as one connected system rather than in pieces. Ammon joins Tango to accelerate that work.
“Ammon is an accomplished leader with deep experience building software businesses that solve complex operational challenges,” said Jon Nuger, Managing Director at Berkshire Partners, and Tango Board member. “He understands where our industry is headed and shares our conviction that real estate has become a strategic business function requiring better data, faster decisions, and the ability to act with confidence. We’re excited to welcome him to Tango and confident he is the right leader to guide the company through its next stage of growth and innovation.”
“I chose to join Tango because I saw a company with a clear purpose, exceptional people, and an opportunity to make a meaningful impact for our current and future clients by accelerating the pace of innovation throughout the company,” said Ammon Lesher, Tango’s Chief Executive Officer. “I’m excited to get to know our clients, work alongside this incredibly talented team, and build on the strong foundation that’s already in place.”
Ammon succeeds Jon Elliott as Chief Executive Officer. Tango thanks Jon for his leadership and his contributions to the company.
