“Jeff is an extremely dedicated individual who has Customer and Employee at heart. He is an excellent leader who realizes the

value of people and how to make the most of one's abilities. His knowledge of Business is very high and manages the balance

between Customer Values and Business Interests seamlessly. His knowledge of Lean and the reasons why Lean doesn't work in

many cases makes him an outstanding choice as a GM. I recommend Jeff with the highest regard.”

Testimony to Value

“Jeff hired me at Nordco straight out of University, and in the 8 years we have worked together he’s been a mentor and a role model to me. He’s exceptionally good at managing and motivating people, and created a culture at Nordco Oshawa that made us all leaders and innovators. He’s never afraid to make tough decisions and take action, but always weighs the

input and opinions of his people. "Trust + Respect + Teamwork = Success.”
