I have had the pleasure of working with Mike while at The Crosby Group. I get a great deal of satisfaction when I work with people that I have the best chance to learn from and win as a team. Working with Mike has certainly satisfied these personal objectives. I have learned more about Operations Management and Execution from Mike than any other role I have been in. Mike has earned great respect as a trusted leader and mentor. He will always take the call, respond to concerns quickly, and ensure that there is understanding by all. I look forward to the chance to work with Mike again in the future.
