Graziano Annoni, Digital Strategy & Transformation IT Director, SC Johnson Professional & Special Projects
"Working with Rick is always a real pleasure and source of great learnings.
Beyond being a Lean Six Sigma experienced professional, he’s great in sharing his knowledge, teaching and coaching potential green and black belts.
He is always willing to take a step back and get the team working it out: fostering the team’s spirit and getting beyond individuals’ results.
Something apart is worth to be mention: if you’d ever have the opportunity to see Rick working with numbers, you’ll realize how he can make it easy to extrapolate the story those numbers tell an turn it into actionable items.
Of course easy and natural for him… maybe less easy for others… however by the time he has done his work, you’d be amazed by how clear the story those numbers tell, is.
Last thing worth to mention is how organized he shows up for any initiative: he’s prepared for coping with any need and always got the right tool to suggest to move on."
Sandra P. Herrera, Supply Chain Leader
“I've worked with Rick on several continuous improvement projects, and his Six Sigma/lean expertise/focus on process discipline is world class. Rick is a great leader, with the proven ability to teach and train others. Many sustainable process wins have been driven under Rick's leadership!.”
