About David Prodanovic

Experienced Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) leader with a proven track record in both large, matrixed organizations and fast-paced entrepreneurial start-ups. I combine a customer-centric mindset with operational discipline to drive sales growth, revenue generation, and the successful commercialization of products and services. Known for balancing strategic vision with hands-on operational leadership, I excel at setting clear priorities, solving complex problems, and ensuring execution under tight deadlines. My leadership approach, both direct and through influence, centers on building inclusive, high-trust cultures that engage, develop, and retain top talent. Core strengths include developing route-to-market strategies, maximizing P&L performance, optimizing cost structures, and steering organizations through change. I bring significant experience in labor relations, including leading successful union negotiations that align workforce engagement with business objectives. Additional expertise spans corporate strategy, contract negotiations, media relations, and stakeholder communications.
