platforms, and projects within General Motors and Ford Motor. Result:

Assisted in generating millions of dollars within the last 16 years.

Motivating: Persuaded subordinates and management to follow common

processes, designs, and materials.

Result: Programs that saved a total of $1.5 million dollars due to

commonalities across 5 programs and very few troubles.

Evaluating: Helped management evaluate part designs by reverse engineering

competitor vehicles. Result: A $1.5 million cost savings due to

benchmarking competitor vehicles and avoiding their warranty issues.
