About Luis Carlos Ghidelli

My career combines an extensive academic and research background with over 25 years of experience working with polymers in organizations like General Electric Plastics, Cromex, Siemens Automotive, Tecumseh, etc. I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Engineering. My background on Business Management was developed on the job and with the help of several short courses over the years, including a specialization in Industrial Engineering. I am a self-entitled team-building enthusiast, which in recent years led me to focus my efforts on building great teams through frequent feedback, action plans and mentoring. I learned a lot with the different companies I worked with, and because they were so different in so many levels, I believe the overall experience has transformed me into a professional capable of understanding the different variables of every situation.

Listed skills include Plastics, Product Development, Polymers, Extrusion, and 28 others.
