About Steve Crum

My strengths include being a versatile, resilient, and growth focused leader who enjoys working with high performing teams in challenging situations and environments. I enjoy building Brands, Developing and Nurturing great teams to accomplish extraordinary results, and solving complex opportunities utilizing an inclusive strategic approach. Having worked in and Managed as GM all key functions, I am comfortable as a functional or overall leader as long as the ability to influence and have impact is present. Of all the roles I have had, my favorite role was my start-up role at International Multifoods ( Now part of JM Smuckers) where myself and 5 other leaders created and operated a new consumer division.
