Regional Consolidation: Ability to roll up dozens of plant spreadsheets into one clear regional report Inventory Control: Keeping a tight grip Inventory to prevent waste – partnering with Supply Chain for accurate system usage and regular cycle counts.

Cross-Border Knowledge: Understanding the basics of doing business in both the US and Mexico (tariffs, labor rates, etc.).

Leadership & Soft Skills Truth-Seeking: Ability to look at a plant's report and quickly see if the numbers are accurate or contain risk or inaccuracies Tough Conversations: Comfortable respectfully challenging operations or functional leaders Executive Presence: Ability to stand in front of North America leadership and explain exactly why the region hit (or missed) its numbers.
