Mike Carter Email & Phone Number

For my entire career, I have been driven to provide servant leadership to every individual in order to better enable their personal growth and success, and to realize their full potential. I am a progressive manufacturing leader and certified Six Sigma Black Belt, with a passion for people and organizational success. I am often called upon, and love the challenge of assessing complex organizations, then building diverse sustainable teams and solutions in order to change culture, achieve continuous improvement, drive customer success, and most importantly, improve health & safety performance.I have been blessed to lead global teams, large and small. Employee recognition and development has been a hallmark of my leadership style. People are our greatest asset, and I believe that people leave leaders, not companies. Everyone wants to be recognized and feel appreciated. This simple belief has guided me to achieve success in every role I have held, and frankly brought an enjoyment beyond any project or goal achievement.My approach to problem solving is dynamic and collaborative. I believe in leading by example, being a visible leader with strong work ethic, and setting clear, reasonable expectations. Making myself easily available and known to my teams has fostered collaboration and trust that results in strong buy-in from stakeholders, which yields sustainable results.My journey has not only been about achieving personal milestones, but also about serving the broader community. I have been Committee Chair for Boy Scout Troop 325 for over 7 years. My school district bond committee membership resulted in two world-class high school Career & Technical Education Centers, which yielded a national record rocketry program. And I now serve on the Citizens Bond Oversight Committee for the Brazosport School District.Performance reviews frequently highlight core competencies, such as:• Culture Change• Change Agent• People Development & Recognition • Budget Management • Organizational Assessment & Reorganization• Safety & Risk ManagementMy teams have enjoyed numerous all-time milestones, exceeding various production and customer KPI’s, as well as various EH&S and injury-free metrics. But it has been the people development achievements that have been most rewarding, and most influential to both their personal lives and the success of the company. As a result, I am often asked to consult, coach and mentor others.I look forward to connecting with you if you’d like to learn more. You can reach me at mlcarter099@outlook.com.
