About Ron Ramsey

Ron Ramsey I PLAY TO WIN As a lifetime athlete, what I do on the field influences much of what I bring to the table as a senior business leader. Key functions of the business and decisions are not independent of each other, and that makes creating a profitable company a team sport. It is this philosophy along with the following strategies that guide my business philosophy: NEVER REMAIN STATICIn business the only thing constant is change, so you need to take action to stay ahead. And at Emsur USA Innovation, Customer Intimacy and Operational Excellence make up our value proposition. As General Manager, I paved the way for the addition of new equipment and human infrastructure to support the launch of a shrink sleeve product portfolio, bringing more value to our customers.KNOW WHAT YOUR CUSTOMER WANTSTalking to customers to understand their needs and designing custom solutions that bring value is essential to differentiate yourself from competition. While at ViskoTeepak, the team turned around a downward revenue / volume / EBITDA trend by expanding the product portfolio which drove revenue 45% and EBITDA 140%.UNDERSTAND HOW TO BEST USE EACH TEAM MEMBERKnown for my ability to create high-performing teams that exceed KPIs, I have reduced turnover in multiple organizations throughout my career by training and coaching. I am most proud that the biggest losses to any of my teams were for upward mobility.
