Profile bio
About Jay Ely
My goal is to obtain a challenging but satisfying Operations/Quality Leadership role with a medical device or other high technology company.Personal Code: Always move forward, never sit still, across all aspects. When in doubt - Take Action! Today’s business is global and the competition has never been tougher and neither are the regulations. To stop means to be run over. Along with this comes the personal need to continually reinvent/reinvest oneself to adapt to a change world. My Leadership standard: In all roles “Be a Leader of Character.” You lead from the front.“Care more than others think wise. Risk more than others think safe. Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think possible.” A very successful person once said to me “Jay, the reason we have employees is to make our job easier to accomplish.” No one can succeed alone. People are the key to success and therefore it follows the right people matter. The business systems utilized while important are secondary. I believe in and have built strong teams and work collaboratively with my colleagues and peers. Collaboration means influence, listen to, challenge, and when the time comes to end the debate and move. I strongly believe in people development and training. At a higher level all of these become a base for a high performance culture.
