What’s been happening:

I had over 30 years of operations, manufacturing, supply chain and materials management experience in my work with Chicago Bridge & Iron, Sentry Equipment, Kaman Aerospace, Advanced Energy, and American Standard. I have been educating, implementing, and developing Lean Flow methods for the past 20 years. As Corporate Director of Demand Management at American Standard, I led the implementation and formalization of Lean Methods in operations, service operations and manufacturing at over 100 facilities within American Standard Corporation. In addition to directing American Standard's Flow Manufacturing programs, I was responsible for the implementation of core demand management processes and resource / inventory optimization based on Lean Flow principles throughout all business units. I was responsible for the mentoring and certification of over 50 Lean masters within American Standard. and was a key member of two major acquisition integration teams as well as a pan-European business rationalization effort. Recently I was Senior Vice President of Professional Services for Lean Flow application software tools, where I was responsible for the support of Lean Flow application software and the implementation and consulting in support of successful Lean Flow implementations. During my career as a lean and flow specialist, I have been instrumental in the design of lean and flow rapid implementation tools, key resource and inventory "right-sizing" algorithms, forecast accuracy correlation techniques and a variety of training programs. Most important, I have two wonderful Sons!
