Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to you on behalf of Robert Carr. I have had the opportunity and pleasure to work closely with Robert Carr while he was at Bombardier Transport. Robert Carr with his leadership successfully executed number of significant high value projects for a number of transit authorities in the North America region and Mexico, lead the acquisition team with finding key locations to set up new manufacturing locations in the USA to support customer requirements per contracts, demonstrating leadership skills that empowered team members to share same vision of executing projects and operations on time to budget using tools such as green belts certification program lean 6 sigma, Robert Carr was fully responsible for all P&L at various locations in above mentioned regions.
Robert Carr leadership efforts we were able to dramatically improve our EBITA processes. not only was Robert Carr able to bring his considerable skills to the task, but probably more importantly great leadership. Working across 12 internal companies across the US was a difficult assignment that Robert Carr was very effective at managing and ultimately getting all senior executives in support of the final solution.
As our company continued to work on improvement projects across our network, Robert Carr and I stayed connected. He was a relentless and passionate advocate for improvement and positive change. Given the magnitude of this initiative across the company coupled with the fact that we are a highly seasonal business with wide fluctuations in business levels, we were constantly reviewing the structure and focus of our process improvement processes. Robert Carr was instrumental in bringing new ideas to the table and working with a small group of fellow leaders to continue to push for positive changes and fight the cultural status quo.
Robert Carr is highly organized, disciplined, and results oriented. He works well in a team environment and can effectively bring a diverse group of people together toward a common solution. I would strongly recommend him to any organization.
Sincerely,
Elliot G. Sander
Former President, Bombardier Transportation Americas
