"What are you the CEO of?
Don't forget to run the business of you!"
~Michael E. Parker
He grew up int the toughest part of Richmond, CA, known as The Iron Triangle. Michael E. Parker overcame many obstacles as a young child. He now manages over 10 businesses, teaches lean management knowledge, and has been able to accelerate and improve businesses across the country. Toyota, General Motors, NUMMI, Kaiser Permanente, Safeway, Lucerence Foods, Wells Fargo, and Genetech are just a few he has provided lean management principles to reduce costs and increase profits. His award winning efforts had further fueled his desires to teach the skills he's learned youth and start a non profit called, Life Skills 411.
It's a bold imagination and a search for a better way. It's a daily decision to rise to the occasion. It's the fearless stance to face great obstacles with even greater solutions. It derails all our questions of "What if..." into "I will" It is planning for a prosperous future for a world our children will see. Knowing everyday that your work comes from the heart and that what you do will make a difference. It's positive. It's action. It's change for the greater good.
