En résumé

To me Formula1 it is all about the having various teams working together against 1 common target to make sure the Car is ready for the race. I will easily compare that to SupplyChain, but our Target is not the Race but making sure Supply and Demand are Balanced.

Being a self-starter, motivated, challenging with a strong "Can Do" attitude, I have worked for various leaders if there field and developed a strong ability to Route Cause, provide Reliable Solutions and Processes. To guarantee an ongoing continuous improvement and increase companies performances and revenue.
