★ Led a team of seven hi-potential team members in creating the 70-year old, private company's first bottoms-up and top-down five-year strategic plan. Our team in collaboration with senior leadership developed a strategic road map which aligned the entire organization. We established the company's winning aspiration, mapped the competitive landscape, key verticals, researched market trends, identified adjacencies and transformational opportunities, acknowledged our gaps, and needed system capabilities leading to the development and execution of the company’s strategic plan via organic and inorganic initiatives. In this role, I also built a robust M&A platform with a strong pipeline of 100+ acquisition targets and an integration playbook. I examined, selected, and implemented the Midaxo M&A platform and Capital IQ market research tool to effectively centralize all work projects while strengthening cross-functional collaboration with diverse teams. The strategic planning process and M&A mapping cultivated with several key global partnerships, while divesting a non-strategic military business and successfully closing four acquisitions.
