My name is Herschel "Tim" Parker, and over the past few decades I've designed and implemented least-waste-way operational processes in both high and low volume manufacturing environments. As part of becoming a 'lean' zealot, I've built robust relationships from executive teams to front-line supervisors and know how to cut through the corporate hierarchy. I get to the heart of what's happening and get things done. Through the years, I have been in 10 different countries in Eastern & Western Europe and Southeast Asia.
