Dear Hiring Manager:
I am writing to express my interest in the position of Sr. Product Readiness Manager, where my extensive experience overseeing continuous and process improvement, process excellence, and quality optimization efforts will enable me to deliver the same superior results for your organization as I have at Honeywell. I have a history of increasing profitability, performance, and capability by leading Lean Six Sigma, 5S, Kaizen, Kanban, Agile/Scrum, and other quality initiatives and programs. Now I would like to take my career to the next level.
The value I offer is best represented by my accomplishments as a Continuous Improvement Manager, Deployment Leader, Production Manager, Site Six Sigma Black Belt, and Development/Commercial Engineer. These include:
• Increasing productivity, efficiency, and quality in the manufacturing and administration processes.
• Reducing costs by improving inventory control, administrative functions, reporting, and training.
• Certifying more than 50 Black Belts, Green Belts, and Lean Experts across multiple locations.
• Developing and implementing critical workflow improvements.
• Establishing and managing an OEM product business unit and growing it to $15M per year.
Some of the skills I would bring to this role are:
• Maximizing quality and productivity while reducing costs and improving safety.
• Building and leading top-performing teams.
• Introducing new capabilities, methodologies, and procedures.
• Creating standard protocols and templates.
• Identifying and eliminating logjams and redundancies.
I hold multiple certifications, including my Six Sigma Lean Master, Six Sigma Black Belt, Agile Scrum Master, Design for Six Sigma Green Belt, DMAIC Green Belt designations, along with degrees in Business Administration, Biochemistry, and Physics.
The accompanying resume provides additional information and demonstrates what I have to offer. I believe it would be mutually beneficial for us to discuss this opportunity, and I look forward to hearing from you to arrange a personal conversation. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely yours,
John David Mize
