In addition, Ward assisted me with countless initiatives requiring data and strategic analysis. In particular, Ward led our efforts to implement Six Sigma across the operation. Ward worked closely with the extended management team to implement the metrics necessary to measure our baseline and identify the opportunities to improve our efficiency. These efforts led to a increase in performance across the teams and became the standard for the larger organization. Ward also led our efforts to implement unit pricing and capacity modeling. By building databases that could be used for multiple purposes and managing the data Ward was able to provide our internal clients with detailed understanding of their costs and give them the tools necessary to make informed product management decisions. Again, the tools Ward implemented became the standard and was eventually implemented across the larger organization. Ward was a very valuable member of my management team and his contribution enabled us to achieve levels of success which would have been impossible without him." and "I had the pleasure of working with Ward in his role as global business manager for our Trust & Securities Operations business.

His value to the Operations was without question. I am confident that Ward will continue to be successful in his future endeavors with his analytical creativity and professionalism.
