● Streamlining all business units around a coherent commercial and operational worldwide strategy, restoring profitability, producing higher-than-market revenue gains, winning market share in strategic and emerging international regions, and delivering double-digit EBITA growth.
● Drove return-on-sales to height of 12%, championed 2 new acquisitions, and restructured operations for maximum cost savings and efficiency.
● Transformed the poorest-performing business unit company-wide into a top-performer generating better structure and 6% profits (and growing) in period of 1 year. Regained control of the top end of the market and introduced new cost-effective solutions that enabled expansion into additional high-potential markets.
