Bio
Shelley Keeton
In all my years of experience, some people stand out for their great qualities and Lina Kalbak is one of those people. She is well known for her good character, accountability, flexibility, prioritization and effective decision making. Lina is well respected by her coworkers and vendors. She is the "go-to" person for negotiations and executing results. Throughout the time I've known her, she has shown me time and again that she is a positive, motivated leader with amazing potential. I enjoyed working with Lina because unlike many buyers, she respects her vendors. Lina is a great communicator and understand the value of treating everyone fairly while being firm on the expected end result. This was especially important when Haas decided to alter the number of springs in multiple stacks. Hundreds of each stack were already manufactured and in our warehouse for upcoming shipments. Every single stack required rework prior to shipping to meet the tight production deadlines at Haas. Lina was in constant communication over several months to ensure we knew exactly how many of each stack had to be reworked each week. Lina’s ability to value and truly partner with us as a vendor kept the production lines and the costs down by eliminating unnecessary overtime costs. Due to Lina’s integrity, dependability and excellent potential, I would heartily recommend Lina for a managerial or supervisor position. I am confident that she would be a great an asset!
