Servant Leadership

Changing a culture begins with establishing a servant leadership presence. We know all the buzz words and acronyms associated with lean enterprise such as 5S, SMED, Kanban, kaizen etc… these are all the things we can see in the form of a process. We fail to understand that without a good foundation of a management system, process improvement is only temporary.

Turnaround Strategies

As I looked back on the path of my carrier I noticed the one thing I did not want to become has actually defined who I am and what I am actually good at. Over the course of 25+ years I can see now all the turnaround strategies that I have been involved with. I am proud of these accomplishments because I was able to help others develop as well as myself. I was also able to add value by creating opportunities to increase capacity and revenue. In the beginning of my carrier I thought it was about achieving a specific position and title and then maintaining it. What I realized as time passed is that this was not the reality that I lived in. Today I find myself constantly looking to see how I can improve myself and my surroundings.
