SUMMARY
I firmly believe in developing personnel within organizations and live by the motto, “My goal is your success
To become an effective leader and mentor I have concentrated on mitigating my personal leadership constraints that could impact organizational development. I am self-aware and have developed controls that provide a clear direction for performance increasing the development of personnel that work with me.
My passion is inventing new ways of organizing human effort to increase productivity and profitability. Transcending the environment rather than just coping with it is a key to sustaining growth in today’s economy.
