Leadership through innovation, customer-centricity and global expansion has been core to our long-range strategy for the past 20 years," Crouse added. "It is our intention to further accelerate our success in these areas by leveraging our considerable strengths."
Deshmukh said, "This is a critical step towards our 'One Company' strategy. This change will help us standardize on engineering best practices across all product families in Cincinnati.
