About On the Edge
Leaders create a vision; identify objectives; and set out strategies that empower others to succeed. Leaders demonstrate integrity; embrace technology; portray confidence; reward innovation; and provide support when prudent risk-taking goes awry.
Leaders learn from the past while looking to the future - and bring both to bear on the here and now. This is the philosophy that has steered Keith Campbell's 30+ years in manufacturing. It has worked for him in operations, maintenance, engineering, R&D, education, consulting and professional organizations--and now he's putting it to work for you--taking you to the edge of his thoughts on packaging operations.
