I am an retired Operations Leader that enjoys helping people building and improving processes while learning about new businesses. I have over 45 years of experience with manufacturing of tractors to jet aircraft and everything in between. I enjoy applying lean methods to optimize processes, reduce waste, improve quality and customer satisfaction.
Accomplished senior business leader with a strong entrepreneurial background and extensive experience in growing businesses across several industries. Most recently, served as president of a global data and analytics / market research firm (Mintel). Strong commercial background with proven track-record of building and leading customer-centric sales organizations across verticals, channels and geographies. Skilled in building and leading cross-functional teams — sales, advisory, analysts, content, client-service, field-service, and brand marketing — in achievement of financial objectives.
I would like to help aspiring business owners learn how to follow their dreams, as well as help current owners enhance their businesses. During my 20+ years as a business owner, my greatest joy was to help others start their own business and serve as a friendly consultant.
