About Jason Lenhart

Highly engaging and collaborative business, commercial and technical professional. An engineer at heart, I excel at complex problems which need unique solutions such as-leading post-acquisition change management and business integration activities across multiple sites, companies, cultures, and countries-corporate/business restructuring program management-developing and executing global market segment growth strategies-leading teams in matrix environments to achieve collective goals.I’m passionate about motivating people to bring creative solutions which are competitive and value-added to internal and external customers. I believe this creative solution mentality keeps the mind flexible and curious, while maintaining a direction that supports the organization.Finally, I think of myself as a global citizen. I’ve had the opportunity to live the United States and Germany, as well as extensively travel and do business throughout the world. This is an area where the joys of my professional and personal life intersect. I enjoy meeting and working with people from various backgrounds, experiencing different places/cultures, understanding differences, and finding commonality!
