Bio
Steve A. Sims
Giles is a rare leader whose capabilities cover a wide range of areas that one wouldn't normally see in one single executive. His vision, combined with his ability to distill complex issues to their essence, inspired us to do things faster and better than we thought possible. He is a very collaborative leader, who takes the time to engage in the details and contribute as part of the team, to solve issues together. I always knew where we headed across the org, and we all supported and drove each other to get there in the best way possible
