Allan Larson’s Summary

Fundamental shifts in lean manufacturing demand both automation and human emotions and concerns. Tough economics push production to work smarter with less.

I have the privilege of guiding craft-based organizations into an automated profitable business. Kodak is a world leader in the glue between many separate parts of the production process. It is workflow. I entered this industry in 1990 and there's no time to wax nostalgic.

As the Senior Demonstrator with the Graphic Communications Group of Kodak, I have personally performed over 1000 demonstrations to commercial, packaging, newspaper and marketing organizations.

My goal is to bring integrity, honesty and 100% commitment to my audience to sustainable profitability through innovation.

I also want to be the best dad, husband and friend which is hopefully going to be my true measure.
