I’ve joined LinkedIn to collaborate and share expertise with the on-line community by offering informal networking advice, guidance and contacts across all aspects of executive leadership, strategic planning, business development and international business operations. (Bob.LinkedIn@Gmail.com)As a global executive and business partner, I have a distinguished history of achievement; driving P&L improvement, business development, manufacturing, international operations and sales management within B2B sectors serving the material handling and automotive / transportation industries. My strengths include growing organizations both organically and through acquisitions, driving brand exposure and market share expansion, and improving operating margins. We can discuss how I have restructured businesses for improved profitability; the sales growth initiatives I have implemented or the lean methodologies I have applied to transform inefficient and ineffective operations. I build dedicated and productive, high performance, cross functional teams while facilitating a collaborative and innovative culture. My passion is to inspire, mentor, and empower others to develop as leaders, reach their full potential, and accomplish exceptional results.
