Senior Product Development and Manufacturing Leader

Summary

Randall Riley
I’m a transformational leader who has contributed to growing revenue and improving margins by developing and delivering projects and programs that exceeds the customer’s expectations. My skills include:

Team Development: I’ve led and developed teams that placed in the top of Gallup engagement scores of the company.

Program Management: I deliver complex programs by providing teams the vision of the goal, the tools and skills to do the job, the support to move obstacles, and the autonomy to deliver results.

Product Development: Led cross-functional teams that included styling, marketing, engineering, designers, and purchasing that delivered such product to the market as the blacked-out limited edition 2010.5 Harley-Davidson CVO Ultra (FLHTCUSE5-BLK).

Manufacturing: With long-term vision, I’ve led significant improvements to manufacturing. The best example is the work I did when I developed the strategy and business case then led a product development team, manufacturing team, suppliers, and contractors to implement Injection Molding at the Tomahawk WI plant, changing the way Harley-Davidson manufactures luggage on the touring motorcycles.
