Bob Andronici: Corporate Leader

Bob Andronici is a program leader for The Language of Business and an active member of the Board of Directors of Firstar Fiber. He focuses his current consulting practice with The Language of Business on Fortune 100 firms around the world, with an emphasis on business strategy, and sales force development and education.

As a foundation of his successful consulting practice, he is a retired senior executive with 20 years of domestic and international corporate responsibility within Scott Paper Company and its Mexican joint venture, Crisoba Corporativo.

In his last corporate role as Director General (COO) of Crisoba’s Consumer Division, as he had done in each of his prior business leadership roles, Bob and his team led this previously underperforming business to a dramatic market share and financial turnaround. Specific results included back-to-back 20%+ unit volume, revenue and profit increases, and a dramatically increased ROA. Key drivers to this growth included:

  • A value-based price management system and new business development initiative
  • The reorganization of sales, distribution and service functions into “Customer Teams”
  • The overall reengineering of manufacturing and IT functions that resulted in a 25% reduction in division manpower and other costs

Prior to his tenure in Mexico, Bob served in key executive roles for Scott Paper Company including Vice President of the Personal Care and Cleaning Business, Chief of Staff for North American Operations and Vice President of North American Staff Services.

Bob holds a B.A. and M.B.A. from the Pennsylvania State University and currently lives near the University with his wife Judith. He is an active member of various university- and community-related boards and is a retired member of the Board of Directors of Sancella Corporativo and Scott Paper de Costa Rica.
