About Ken

As an Operations Executive, Certified Success Coach and Business Hypnotist I have facilitated the growth and development of managers through self-awareness and coaching using proven mentoring techniques. I have led optimization efforts for operations through improved safety, quality, and process enhancements in a competitive global marketplace. I have solid experience in directing plant operations at multiple sites across North and South America and worked extensively with operations leadership teams in Europe, and Asia.

My background includes progressive roles leading manufacturing operations and sustainable operational improvement initiatives, strategic business planning and investment planning & projects. In these roles I’ve collaborated on enhancing performance through a hands-on approach to solving complex organizational problems and developing operations teams. I’ve successfully managed projects from initial concept to start-up and established manufacturing entities.

I’m known as an innovative, collaborative leader with a talent for improving overall operations, building bench strength and enhancing productivity. I leverage these capabilities to drive results and operations excellence across world markets. These experiences are all brought to the table when working with clients seeking their own personal development track.
