Perceptive, analytical, tenacious, driven, boundaryless team player. I solve intractable business problems. The more complex the problem, the more passionate I become about digging up the root cause and developing permanent solutions. I see systems and processes and understand how to guide a team to make improvements. With 9+ years’ experience working directly with senior management in designing and implementing strategic business change initiatives, I have established a reputation as the point person for attacking complex, mission-critical problems.My knack for problem solving began with systems analysis in the high technology field. I went on to design and lead the execution of biomedical research programs at 3 of the top 10 hospitals in the Greater Los Angeles area. My passion for and skills in scientific inquiry and team leadership led me to combine both in my current career as a process improvement expert, using the scientific method to understand situations and solve business problems.Examples of business transformation and continuous improvement accomplishments:► Used Six Sigma business analytics and kaizen to shrink processing time for past due orders by 50%. In the first three months of implementation, revenue increased by $1 million more than originally projected. ► Supported a 15-fold increase in production over 9 months through collaboration with stakeholders and applying kaizen and 5S events to optimize space utilization and process flow; reduced floor space 50% and eliminated 10 pallets of WIP weekly.►As change leader during a time of rapid growth, I transformed a unit from an environment of disengagement, lack of accountability, and broken processes to a high-performing, collaborative, team.“Gregg is an outstandingly intelligent, reliable, forward thinking individual who possesses a very well developed set of problem solving skills.” -- Thomas Troub, Program Manager, Medtronic Diabetes
