Charismatic, energizing and compassionate General Manager able to connect with and inspire people of all ages and backgrounds.. equally comfortable in the boardroom as well as the call center.. have managed as many as 3500 in a Fortune 50 company to as few as a dozen in a start up.. I make things happen through disciplined goal setting and consistent, clear metrics to track them – communicated to everyone in the company.. and create a hard working, but fun environment that makes people want to come to work every day.. I open doors and build business relationships both internally and externally.. I listen more, talk less, and spend more time with my team than with my superiors.. Generally, I excel in ‘front of the ship’ roles: Marketing, Sales, Business Development.. but with a Finance background, clearly know how to steer by the numbers.. I’ve been labeled as a ‘utility player’ and ‘Mr. fix-it’ by mentors, am not afraid to try new and different things, and can adapt to change easily.. winning is big with me, but not at the expense of integrity.. and people will follow me almost anywhere.. lived abroad in London, Amsterdam, Sydney and Tokyo.. and have international experience in Europe and Asia/Pacific, across multiple countries.. and have done business in almost every state in the US.. have been accountable for billions in revenues, millions in EBIT and thousands of people, but never lose sight of the fact that the team will drive the results.. and I’m not shy about exceeding those results either.. I have been in leadership roles since high school and am in the second half of the game now where I ‘give back’ to the generation that will lead us into the future..Specialties: Sales Management, Sales Operations Management, Product Marketing Management, Offer Development/Management, Channel Development/Management, Advertising/Promotion, Business Development - and, most importantly, hiring the right people..
