Bio
John Roach (SSGB)
I had the extreme pleasure of working with and for Evan at Proseal America. As part of my role in Continuous Improvement we would routinely collaborate on many of the initiatives that impacted Proseal’s bottom line. In all instances he was an essential thought partner providing both strategic guidance and tactical direction. In addition to his excellent core skills in business analysis, Evan exhibited a level of understanding of both the tray sealing business and the market at large that set him apart from his peers at JBT. I saw first hand and truly believe that he is one of the cornerstones of this company and a large part of its historical and continued growth and success. Always a calm head and willing to role the sleeves up, he is truly an inspirational leader. I found him to be a fantastic partner especially in times when deliverables had a short notice or shifting goals meant extreme pressure. Another key observation was his ability to utilize a variety of research tools and methods, analyze issues from multiple perspectives and communicate clearly and concisely his points and findings. All of which were grounded with a hard dose of common sense and facts. This ensured that he always had the attention and respect from his audiences during presentations. In closing, I would rate Evan amongst the best I have ever worked with and for. He is truly an empathetic leader who cares about his people and always leads by example.
