CollapseDescription

My Blue-Sky position would be a leadership role with great responsibility and authority. A fast pace environment where decisions and implementations need to be made quickly. Where innovative ideas and approaches are required. My colleges should also possess the same enthusiasm and devotion. The problems need to be challenging. I enjoy leading a team through chaotic situations showing progress and resolving complex problems. I prefer to create, implement new ideas, and processes. I enjoy solving problems, but want the authority to implement and move quickly. I am a leader with an inspirational, tenacious, passionate personality. I encourage input from my subordinates and try to accommodate them when it is the correct decision. I acknowledge there are many ideas, mine is not necessarily the correct one, but I have the responsibility to choose. I strive in a time-constrained environment. I prefer the big picture. I like being involved, have some level of individual contribution as well.

CollapseAccomplishments

Highlights:

I have many accomplishments through-out my career, enclosed are a select few.  Needed more capacity without bottle necking the factory. The solution was to restructure the Bill of Materials to support Mass Production (builds in volume) and send into sub-stock, then when ready complete the build in smaller lot sizes. Results: Reduced setup time. Preliminary indicators show a 30/70 ratio decreasing downtime and increasing production by 20%.  Company was bringing in new business which required Box Builds. Takt times were unacceptable. Using lean principles, methods were reconfigured. Personnel trained in a new type of manufacturing, Flow Manufacturing (incorporating Work Cells and Make-One-Move-One philosophies). Results: were immediate. Labor changed from 7 people for seven days to 5 people for 3 days. Opportunity cost ~$50k annually  Using a traditional point of manufacturing system, ready backlog was increasing beyond manageable levels. Space requirements were also increasing. Converted from a Point of a Manufacturing concept to a Point of Use through-out the plant. Results: Reclaimed approximately 240 cubic feet of manufacturing space. Visibility increased enabling easier material tracking.
