My friend Phil Donne 'about page' on LinkedIn states "I've made hundreds, if not thousands of mistakes, with millions of dollars of other people's money. There is a lot of learning under the hood.

I have better than average depth in leadership, general management and all things financial, operational, talent-wise and other, yet my "wheelhouse" is consumer products and mainly in better for you, nutritious, organic, natural and generally healthy for human and the planet foods. I think I understand branding and consumer and commercial strategy pretty well. Maybe a bit dated, but not out of date. :)"
