I have worked with management teams in small organizations and large corporations for over 30 years aligning operations with strategic initiatives, improving business processes and performance, shortening product development cycle time, and expediting time to market. My effectiveness in leadership roles has been a direct result of building strong teams and creating a work environment where my direct reports felt appreciated, recognized and rewarded. I know how to partner with employees to achieve mutually beneficial results. In fact, I was a leader in the transition of a 1200+ employee business unit from a traditional hierarchical structure to a team-based organization that shared common goals, expedited decision making and generated an energized and fully engaged workforce. After 20 years in the highly regulated Aerospace Industry, I started a consulting firm which works with global medical device companies to build successful Product Development and Manufacturing Organizations, Compliant Quality Systems and strong Regulatory Submissions for FDA and EU MDR approval.
