As a retired Chief Operating Officer and seasoned international business leader, I have leveraged my extensive experience and expertise in driving business and operational excellence, business growth, and turnarounds in both large and small companies. As a SCORE Mentor I am able to utilize those skills to assist small business and nonprofit success.
My background includes senior leadership roles in the high-tech specialty materials and diverse manufacturing industries, creating and implementing transformative strategies. I’ve driven business objectives by leading and involvement in complex deal negotiations and major acquisitions.
My successes include turning around challenged businesses, revitalizing business processes, and driving continuous improvements.
I can assist with new business start-up. Buying and selling a business. Improving existing business performance. Developing business plans and strategies, improving operational and business processes. Extensive nonprofit and board experience in setting up, and assisting non-profit organizations reach their goals.
