Bio
Gilmar Pinheiro
I had the privilege of working with Probyn Forbes for more than seven years at Evonik-Degussa, where he was responsible for the entire production management. He is not only a highly qualified manager, ethical and professional, but mainly a leader who is able to inspire and motivate his team and colleagues, to deliver their best potentials and qualities on benefits of the company. I myself am very grateful to Probyn for all I learned from him and his great support to me. I really wish someday I can work with Probyn again. I take the moment to deeply congratulate Woodstream Corporation for appointing Probyn as Executive Vice President. I am sure he is already a great asset to your company and will deliver outstanding results. Wish you all the best Probyn

I know Probyn Forbes since my association with Degussa in Australia in 2005. Having collaborated as part of the global management team, global projects, and towards optimizing the business P&L I found Probyn Forbes to be a leader with character who quite naturally is able to inspire and lead a global operations team. In supporting a global growth strategy Probyn's experience ensures a sustainable competitive advantage from an infrastructure standpoint while his commercial perspective allows flexibility in his thinking and leadership towards rightsizing operations. I recommend Probyn as a global operations leader with the ability to redefine productivity benchmarks
