“Donald provided world-class expertise in driving our performance improvement, pushing us up the first S-curve of performance in planning, which the entire organization recognizes as a huge step forward for us. He is great to work with — challenging us to be better, providing expertise, coaching and learning examples, and more importantly helping to make the process fun. I very much appreciated the opportunity to work with him.”

"I have had the opportunity to learn and implement the IBP process at a 100+ year old manufacturing company. Donald successfully guided us through all phases including assessments, education, and implementation. The toughest part of trying to maximize the intersection of People – Process – Systems, was with the people part. Donald effectively coached me through the difficult discussions that had to be had at all levels of the organization. What resonated most with me was Donald’s words that I heard over and over during the project… 'We have to help them understand…' I have worked with many consultants over time where when the project is done, they move on. After our formal project phase was complete, the support from Donald never ended. He continued to stay connected and truly was interested in and cared for our success.”

“Donald is a valued partner in Simmons Foods’ Integrated Business Planning journey. His passion for our success spans twelve years. He coached us through two process implementations of Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP), and he speaks the truth even when it hurts. I’m thankful for his mentoring, charming wit, wise counsel, and experiential knowledge. We often talk about our values closely aligning as we put people first, act with integrity and take action. He exemplifies these ideals.”
