“I and my team served Gary at Schwans Food Company. He is both a collaborative and innovative leader, who champions open dialogue and idea exchange between his team and business partners. As a Customer, he rightly challenges a service provider for new value, and in turn, he made us a better service provider. As a Business Partner, Gary makes great effort to recognize and reward cooperative achievement. I had the pleasure of serving on his Logistics Advisory Board for two years and directly participated in many of the collaborative exchanges and work sessions he championed in this setting with other esteemed partners. Gary is both a knowledgeable and innovative leader, and he has my full endorsement for any role calling for a Supply Chain leader with these characteristics.”
