Gerry is without doubt one of the most focused and dedicated manufacturing managers that I have met. His leadership of the formulation, filling and packaging teams during the four years that he reported to me was stellar. Gerry is one of those individuals that bases his decisions in the context of what is best for the customer while always focusing on outcomes that make good business sense. Gerry is a person who consistently focuses on continuous improvement of processes. During the 2-year Lean Manufacturing program at Bionostics, which resulted in greatly improved overall business performance, Gerry was one of the key drivers and overall leaders of this successful initiative. I enthusiastically recommend Gerry for any manufacturing or operations leadership role.
