Fast, innovative solutions to important business problems - Profits, Sales, Cost, People, Process, Systems .

I like variety of experiences and challenges and thrive in unfamiliar environments with complex problems. My skills portfolio is made-up of global experiences in large and small companies with customers and partners from different cultures and values. When I reflect on past successes, I realize the key common ingredients have been speed of action, inspired teams, aggressive goals, collaboration, communications and focus on going beyond previous achievements.
One of my personal beliefs is "Great is not good enough" and I practice it. I have inspired many teams to superior performance with that belief. I like to learn by doing more than hypothesis and analysis.
Most of my work has required me to fix profitability problems.
In one case, the team and I took a company from $1M per day loss to profitability and revenue growth in less than 3 years. This required reducing costs by changing the work scope and using systems to enable everyone to accomplish more.
In another case, we tripled the revenue to over $1.5B in 18 months. This growth came from changing the sales and marketing processes, incentives and customer focus.
Personally, I am fitness focused and start my day very early to make time for it. Some of my favorite sports are hiking, swimming, racquetball, tennis. skiing and golf.
