Empowering individuals with the information and tools necessary to operate efficiently is

very likely to improve your organization’s competitive advantage.

I have done this through insightful planning and executing realistic performance

objectives. A self-motivated leader with a background in sales and marketing,

quality assurance, production and project management, coupled with my experience

in troubleshooting problems and providing a logical course of action, then

maximizing opportunities to exceed expectations are the primary assets I bring as a

member in your organization. As a Network Repair Technician/Project Manager/QA and OBA

with Solectron, and Celestica, both Fortune 500 companies, I established an excellent reputation

for successfully leading medium to large complex projects.

Lead a 23 member team in a detailed operation to refurbish and upgrade Compaq

and Hewlett-Packard Network Servers and PC's. This equipment was recovered

from 9-11 tragedy in NYC, NY. We exceeded customer expectations by refurbishing

3000 out of 3600+ units. Under my direction our efforts lead to a company sales

profit of more than $420,000.00.

My management talents are complemented with leadership, listening, and customer

service skills. I am able to effectively establish rapport with or without face-to-face

contact and feel confident with my ability to communicate the benefits of additional

exposure and close a significant number in new and expanded business (if applicable,

that is) . My business management and leadership talents are transferable to virtually any

industry.

I am excited at the prospect of bringing new energy and making an immediate impact with

Cardinal Health. Thank you for your time, and attention. Kindly review my resumé then, call me

MERRY GO ROUND ENTERPRISES, INC., Joppa, Maryland – June1986 to Aug1995

During my career with Merry-Go -Round, I achieved significant measurable success. The following selected examples

will help to illustrate my approach to organizational issues and troubleshooting strategy. MGR experienced a dramatic

increase in employee turnover, which followed a major district-by-district restructuring. Met with employees and

found that they felt very insecure about the company's future because of the news concerning corporate management

and stockholders. My strategy was as follows:

• Implemented performance profile system which rated employees/and or management on core

competencies and key behaviors. Improved the process of our communication systems with alerts and

up-to-date memos. This new system of communication kept all employees informed about company

performance and direction.

• Reduced turnover among ‘top sales performers’ 87.9% by instigating a pay-for-performance

compensation system, based on competency and behavioral profiles.
