Mark Snyder
I have twice had the honor and good fortune to work for Lyle. First in his role as CFO at Energy Conversion Systems and subsequently at AAI Pharma and I hope to have the opportunity to work with him again. Lyle is a world class business leader. He empowers and inspires his staff and colleagues. He is hardworking, driven, extremely intelligent and has a gift that allows him to get to the root of an issue in a very rapid manner. He empowers and inspires his staff and business partners and is a true mentor.

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work for Lyle while at Abaco. He demonstrated all the qualities of a true leader. He effectively partnered with his senior leader colleagues to drive the business - internally and externally; he empowered, inspired and mentored his team; he always performed with high integrity; and he constantly amazed us with his extensive knowledge and insight. I've kept in touch with Lyle over the years with the hope that our working paths would cross and I'd have the opportunity to work for him again.
