Gietl is a seasoned business development and operations executive with a diverse track record of leading change across all areas of concept creation, brand re-positioning, fiscal accountability, procurement, logistics, supply chain, and category management. He has grown business in an array of sectors, consistently aligned with stakeholders’ goals and values.
