Bio
Joseph Drew
Peter Hecht is without peer -- the finest Managing Editor ever at the Comparative Civilizations Review. I heartily endorse and recommend him. He serves the publication as the workflow expert. Here is a leader who is highly organized and able to coordinate many parties, thus ensuring that an ambitious, time-driven objective -- flawless publication -- is reached successfully each cycle. He pays attention to every aspect of the final product, so an excellent, award-winning, internationally-respected result emanates from his direction consistently, without error. Moreover, he is the journal's vendor manager and has proven repeatedly over the years his uncanny ability to find and negotiate the best possible service and pricing from our publisher, thus increasing profitability. I first met Mr. Hecht when he was a graduate student at the University of Virginia and I was his professor; I recall that his Comprehensive Examination was superb, the top in the institution. This is a brilliant, learned, well-rounded man, with tremendous capabilities to organize a recurring effort, to negotiate all aspects of production, and to manage a sophisticated operation.

First ex-patriot sales and marketing manager in Uzbekistan for Coca-Cola. Managed expansion of the company's sales and marketing departments from a small scale local distribution effort in the capital city of Tashkent with 5 delivery trucks, to a nationwide system of distributors, working from multiple production facilities, with over 50 local route trucks and dozens of long distance trucks. These efforts contributed to 1000% sales volume growth in 1996, earning the #1 worldwide sales growth award from the Coca-Cola company. Our contribution of a 2 meter tall, hand crafted "Art Bottle" to support the Uzbek National Olympic team in the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta is a witness to the level of accomplishment achieved by Coca-Cola Uzbekistan in 1996. As of 2023 the bottle still resides in a place of honor in the Coca-Cola world headquarters lobby. Show less
