Bio
Dennis Martin
Mike is an extraordinary asset. His work ethic is unparallel. He has the respect of his subordinates and admiration of his peers. Mike continuously challenges the system which he operates in. His thorough understanding of the dynamic complexities of the entire supply chain enables him to improve processing efficiencies without compromising process flow. His leadership has led to sustained performance across all Business Plan metrics. Mike’s ability to foster employee involvement is the catalyst of his success. As a leader, he communicates the rational and significance driving each continual improvement initiative. However, he also understands that you can’t talk change into existence, it requires fortitude and action. And this is what sets Mike apart from others!

I've worked with Mike for the past 6 years. He has worked directly for me for the past 3 years. Mike is one of the best I've ever seen at execution. He sets high goals for himself and his Department, and consistantly achieves the objectives. He is able to balance and prioritize many objectives, he is an excellent delegator, and simply delivers outstanding results. Our facility has been through difficult times in the past few years. Mike has managed the Production/Supply Chain function through extreme fluctuations in demand, achieving 100% on time delivery every day for the past 2 years, while reducing inventory by 80%. The achievements on his resume don't begin to tell the story, and I hope to have the pleasure of working with him again.
