As Controller, I reported to Frank in his role as Vice President of Finance at Terex Corporation.  Frank's strength is that he understands the operational aspects of the business as well as the financial. He had a key role supporting the CEO in overseeing the company's diverse businesses, and he worked closely with business managers to make critical operating decisions as well as overseeing the financial aspects.

He has a great ability to get quickly up to speed in a new situation - making substantive contributions almost as soon as he arrives. I also worked with Frank in the initial stages of integrating the $400 million crane acquisition, where these strengths enabled him to quickly gain an understanding of the operations spanning facilities in several countries and begin making the critical decisions to enable successful integration.

Frank is also a person of the highest integrity, and was a key influencer in my own career development.
