I am passionate about customer service - it's doesn't have to be as difficult as it seems to be. I am excited about learning - I want to be seen as an expert, but not a know-it-all. There is always something to learn and I hope to never lose a healthy curiousity.I strive to be easy to work with - I want to challenge thinking where it will help, teach when it is needed and I can provide guidance, and be thoughtful and deliberate in my interactions and approach.I appreciate the answer "I don't know, but..." - it helps others know that you recognize your limits, and it shows that, depending on what's after the 'but', a desire to find out, work together, or take an educated guess that we can then work with to zero in on the correct answer for any given situation.I genuinely want your business/process/system/life to operate better - whether it's improved supply chain processes, a better way to look and use data, or the exploration and implementation of an ERP system as a foundation, and I love it when clients trust me to stand in the gap with them and face down the future.I aim to continue to be a proven servant-leader with deep supply chain expertise balanced with strong communications skills and an enthusiastic-learner approach in helping organizations identify, target, and realize improved performance and benefit across the value chain. I am a supply chain executive with 25+ years of experience with a focus on improving the customer experience through supply chain strategy, manufacturing, and operations improvements within industries including automotive, industrial equipment, pulp and paper, chemicals, consumer products, resources, and communications/high tech. I am known as an excellent program lead and project manager of collaborative teams focused on improving the supply chain operations, tools, and organizations of clients by identifying, selling, delivering, and transitioning transformational supply chain solutions.An intellectually curious problem solver that blends proven methodologies and approaches with creativity and boldness, my experience and deep functional expertise lies in:Supply Chain StrategyCustomer Experience and ServiceInventory OptimizationERP Blueprinting / Org Development / Interim Processes3PL ManagementMaintenance OptimizationIntegrated Supply / Demand PlanningLean Manufacturing and PrinciplesDistribution OperationsAsset ManagementC-Suite Communications Distribution Network Optimization Warehouse / Logistics Management
