As an electrical engineer turned business architect, he proactively designs and implements real-world incentives, decisions, and actions that transform companies into their uniquely optimal version. More than 20 years of experience working with Fortune 100, private equity, and venture capital companies have shaped John's unique perspective on the critical importance of harmonizing company purpose, strategy, operations, and execution. He holds an MBA from Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management and is a Six Sigma Black Belt.
