“Tim Thomas provided program creation, leadership development training,
team development facilitation and personal coaching to 11 manufacturing and
packaging sites of Cardinal Health and Catalent Pharma Solutions during the
years 2006 through 2008. He was a key member and creator of the organizational
development portion of lean six sigma breakthrough implementations which
resulted in significant cost/cash savings and customer satisfaction improvement.
In addition, Tim provided change management and change resistance training
to Master Black Belts and Black Belts at a unique two day conference for
both companies. Tim's personal style and deep subject matter expertise were
recognized by all who attended any of his sessions and were touched by his
passion. The best indication of the value of his skills is his becoming part
of the team and, as we implemented improvement initiatives, Tim's training
became an integral and expected part of the process. Because of the recognized
value of Tim's training, he provided further "train the trainer" coaching
for internal resources to facilitate internal replication
of the skills.”
