Lee & I were part of a team asked to help with the implementation of a new ERP system project which was overbudget & overdue. Lee consistently has a no-nonsense approach to problem solving & getting the job done. He is task oriented, focuses on managing change, & getting the results needed to bring projects back on target. He is also a great team player with an approachable disposition & those traits always yield quicker solutions.
