• To enhance P&L and margins, I spearheaded the creation of optimizations, especially amongst Field Technicians (FT). Over the next year, I created a regional Best Practices team, enhanced tools to enable coverage of more rigs and customers per FT, and advanced training and education of FT’s that resulted in further product adoption. This elevated EBITDA by 17% the first year (73% of revenue), and in another 5 years EBITDA was 44.6M and 81% of total revenue.

• As a result of the restructure, regional management's job description expanded to include P&L and sales responsibilities, but all were first-time managers with no previous professional training. I was charged by the COO to deliver heightened training. The first 60 days, I built a development plan, performed evaluations, and communicated expectations. Once completed, I outlined a mentor program, fostered outside-the-box thinking, reevaluated progress to align development with the BU’s goals… Show more

Once completed, I outlined a mentor program, fostered outside-the-box thinking, reevaluated progress to align development with the BU’s goals. These efforts were the catalyst for continued success in the BU, retaining a marquee client ($18M annual revenue), and these training methodologies are now SOP in the CBU. Show less

• An improper understanding of the culture was resulting in disengaged, unmotivated, and less productive employees. To reverse half a decade of misperception, I insisted that employees challenge ideas and strategies at all levels of the company. I also coached and mentored individuals, facilitated regional training sessions, and encouraged transparent communication centered around a right to understand. This challenged, motivated, and improved employee productivity on all levels.

• For 2 decades, a lack of established Best Practices/SOPs and siloed communication resulted in operational disarray and high attrition. To reverse this, I began to define scope, roles and responsibilities, and created/facilitated Best Practice meetings. I also navigated change resistance to establish timelines, expectations, stakeholder communication methodology, and metrics. These benchmarks improved product/service rollout, reduced costs by $3.4M YoY, improved retention 45%, asset tracking… Show more

Because of these improvements, I was promoted to General Manager. Show less

• A customer was soliciting proposals from competitors for a data quality product that was not offered by the company. Thus, I created a business case and sales strategy to pilot a product and over the next 75 days, I worked with a subsidiary company, 3PS, and the customer to conceptualize design.

• In the wake of the most significant industry collapse in recent times, the CEO and COO promoted and tasked me to restructure the BU and address inefficiencies to maintain profitability.

• Six months after releasing a new product not one sale was made, so I spearheaded efforts to transform our sales strategy to directly communicate value proposition. I also appointed individual leads for in-depth product training to subsequently train other Field Technicians. We secured our first sale within 14 days, and 25% product adoption within the first month. Regionally, the product generated $2.5M in the first year, and this sales strategy was adopted by all BUs in the US.

• Competition began providing an add-on product free of charge, which threatened market share. To combat this, I created a business case and strategy the first 14 days to demonstrate such a product’s efficacy in the region and persuaded the US GM over the next 3 months to provide it at a lower rental rate. The product strengthened customer confidence, displaced competitors, delivered ROI within 15 days, was rolled out Nationally, and yielded $1M in revenue with 90% margins the next 12 months… Show more

• Henley purchased an underperforming team operating at a loss of $550K/year due to a lack of long-term customer engagement strategy. The next 60 days, I made evaluations, onboarded new management to fit the culture, formed a vision and mission, and led the strategic plans to improve brand image. Within 2 years, the team transformed a loss into a profit, enabling 12% - 17% higher revenues. The team was resold 4 years later for 2X the acquisition price.

• The US Operations Manager called upon me to initiate a turnaround of an underperforming region after years of failed attempts. I evaluated and formed a strategic plan complete with performance evaluations, measurable KPI’s, feedback, and clearly defined expectations, targets, and development goals. This turnaround reduced attrition by 75% and several employees received promotions or were recognized as high performers/having leadership qualities. Margins increased per FT by 12% ($3,200/day)… Show more
