About Barb S.
Resilient F100 global executive with broad experience in operations, supply chain, manufacturing, accounting and IT. A collegial manner and consultative style well adapted to providing advisory services and independent board director service from small start ups to mid cap firms.As a successful executive at Caterpillar, I led multiple divisions, across international borders, through economic crashes and upturns, transformative growth, and customer success. I delivered results through a combination of strategic thinking, effective team leadership, and a comprehensive approach to leading change. Joined ConMed’s Board of Directors and Audit Committee in 2019 in pursuit of next chapter with board service to provide guidance and counsel in the medical industry. Joined Shipwell Inc. lending diversity of thought in the supply chain industry – critically important as we’ve seen throughout 2020. In addition, I hold an advisory board role with Achieving Women’s Excellence (AWESOME) as a platform for my passion for advocating women and encouraging them to “reach beyond and achieve more” in supply chain and line roles. Personally, I have a deep sense of adventure and enjoy a varied mix of interests. These have include scuba diving in the US Virgin Islands, several African safaris, hiking in the US National Parks, learning to boat in the British Virgin Islands and exploring different cultures with travel.
