The Professional Biography of Marvin Mackey
Successful companies need agile leaders with versatile skill sets that can roll up their sleeves, influence others, keep costs down and scale themselves and their staffs with the business.
I am a high technology veteran with U.S. and Asia Pacific operations experience combining mechanical development, quality, manufacturability and support. Most recently I was the Sr. Director of Advanced Manufacturing for Xircom, a half billion-dollar global wired and wireless mobile connectivity company that was acquired by Intel in 2002, then relocated in 2003. I also have an extensive background in technical service and support leadership.
By leveraging my diverse mix of management experience, I have developed a leadership style that understands, and has successfully overcome, the complexities of working with cross-functional and dotted line groups to achieve challenging goals while helping my team stay firmly focused on both the customer and the business.
I am a passionate leader and problem solver with an emphasis on process development and team building. As an example of my leadership abilities, I was selected by the COO at Xircom to organize, build and manage a new strategic organization tasked with ensuring product manufacturability, knowing the majority of my background and technical expertise at the time was in service and support and outside of the operations and engineering arenas.
This 120 person team successfully reduced the roll-out window for a diverse family of products whose critical launch dates provided Xircom with a key competitive advantage. The global, cross-functional responsibilities included mechanical design and development – PCB layout – packaging – compliance, component, test and manufacturing engineering – pre-production materials – data control – system test – quality and failure analysis. Other accomplishments included project management for the mechanical development of RealPort, a patented, award winning flagship product. I initiated the use of refurbished product as warranty replacements, producing annual savings of over $ 4M and structured, organized and built Xircom’s award winning technical support team, providing a pivotal differentiator that established Xircom as the global market share leader in mobile connectivity. Additionally, I developed a Western Regional service business for Square D (a Group Schneider company).
An avid diver, mountain biker and snow skier, I organized annual company white water rafting and ski trips as well as weekly mountain bike rides as a means to foster team work and cooperation. I also made extensive use of team building off-sites, brainstorming sessions and annual departmental conferences to further forge strong relationships and improve communication.
My personal and professional development was enhanced through management programs at Stanford University’s Executive Institute, the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business and Crosby’s Quality College. I also held leadership positions in both the San Fernando Valley and Los Angeles chapters of the Association for Services Management International and was an active member of the Service & Support Professionals Association.
