Bio
Stephen Fecho, Jr
Tom is clearly interested in helping his team grow while providing the opportunity to work on challenging projects. Tom is always willing to listen and work through complex problems with sense of calm and resourcefulness. He provides the right level of direction while managing expectations with leadership. His patience and willingness to help have made me motivated to do the best job I can accomplish. Tom brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to any Procurement organization and motivates his team to bring out the best they can do. He challenges the status quo and helps navigate organizations through tremendous change. Having worked alongside Tom at Merck and now at Teva, I value the relationship we have built and recommend Tom for meeting your business challenges.

Tom has been my manager for the last 3,5 years and I can describe him as a very supporting & involved manager who gave me a lot of freedom to build and manage my own strategies & category. Overall I would describe Tom as a people manager with a positive attitude, who is able to influence, connect, create bridges with his team/stakeholders and who is not afraid to share his opinion within all layers of the organization.
