SALES PROFESSIONAL/FLOOR MANAGER

HARLEY-DAVIDSON
10.2009 - 06.2016
  • Consistent top sales performer in commissioned sales environment…. Blah blah

  • Platoon Sergeant - MCLB Albany Georgia
  • - As a Lean Sigma Green belt I facilitated the dissection of processes to further analysis, identify and evaluate inefficiencies
  • - Once the process was exposed and inefficiencies were identified, made designs to eliminate waste, promote efficiency through detailed plans. These plans included time, effort and idle instances.
  • What I did through this program was cut nonsense and make things leaner, more efficient and as free from error as possible.
