About

The focus in all positions I covered in my almost thirty years of career in business has been to develop sustainable and profitable long term business with customers, in most of cases world leaders in their market segments. I have consistently achieved it establishing solid relationships with the customers based on professionalism and systematic fulfillment of commitments; open mind, attention to cultural differences and human touch has been my facilitators. Specialties: Automotive semiconductors and sensors in particular. More than ten years experience with Japanese culture, customers and business practices. Joint-Venture contract negotiation with Korean partner and correlated anti-trust approvals. Development contract negotiations with multi-billion Japanese companies. Contract negotiation with supplier of technology. During the last 4 years I moved to project management of corporate marketing transformation projects. In particular I focused on deployment drivers such as change management and internal communication.
