Todd has a Bachelors in Science, Industrial and Systems Engineering from the Ohio State University and an MBA from Thomas More College.  He served in a number of leadership roles during his 23 year career in small to mid-sized manufacturing businesses including VP of Manufacturing roles at IPC Power Resistors/Post Glover and Skilcraft, and COO at Senneca Holdings.  He has worked with continuous improvement teams, improved operational performance, and developed leaders.  Another key focus was helping his teams through a merger and multiple acquisitions, with most of his time spent on the integration efforts.  Todd realized there was a significant gap with family-owned businesses seeking to transition leadership to the next generation, forcing them to sell.  He left the corporate structure in late 2017 to follow his passion of developing people, coaching, and mentoring.

 

Todd is an award winning Certified Master Business Coach and Exit Planning Advisor.  In this role, Todd focuses his time helping business owners and leaders achieve results they otherwise could not achieve on their own.  He works with multiple family-based businesses helping to prepare the next generation to take the reins of the company.  Todd volunteers at the Goering Center in the Next Generation Institute program as a Facilitator and Family Guide.  His expertise includes operations leadership, leadership development, strategic planning and implementation, continuous improvement, team building, coaching, and succession planning.

 

At home, Todd enjoys family time with his wife and two teenage boys.  They enjoy outdoor adventure, travel, golf, and skiing as a family.
