Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Mr. Fadenrecht has established a distinguished career marked by innovation, technical expertise and leadership across multiple industries. Since 2000, he has excelled as the director of product and business development at Electro Product Innovation Company in Mill Creek, Washington, where he has been involved in developing product concepts that support global industries in transportation and infrastructure. Additionally, Mr. Fadenrecht remains active as an author, consultant and guest speaker.

Simultaneously employed by Boeing for over 30 years, Mr. Fadenrecht initially worked as a manufacturing engineer and then as an engineering manager leading assignments in value engineering, product cost improvement program initiatives, LEAN manufacturing and virtual manufacturing between 1988 and 2006. His early years included contributions to planning and designing the 747, 767 and 777 model airplane.

From 2006 to 2022, Mr. Fadenrecht served as an engineering spatial integration and visualization manager for Boeing Commercial Airplanes in Everett Washington. During this period, he created the Visualization Center of Excellence (VICE), assembling a cross-functional team from research and development, engineering, and information technology to develop software and analytical tools that enabled engineering and production personnel to visually interpret complex requirements for airplane design, construction and integration. Mr. Fadenrecht later retired from the Boeing company, but continues to support mentoring current engineers and business leaders in the holistic approaches to concept and strategy development.

Before being acquired by Boeing, Mr. Fadenrecht worked as a technical consultant at Newark Electronics from 1987 to 1988 and as a lead systems engineer at Electronic Data Systems between 1985 and 1987. At Electronic Data Systems, he played a key role in implementing advanced technologies for General Motors during a period of intense competition with Japanese automakers who were utilizing Kaizen techniques for rapid product development. Earlier in his career, Mr. Fadenrecht served as information technology and product line manager at Campbell Industrial Supply, beginning in 1982.

Mr. Fadenrecht's academic credentials have been instrumental in shaping his career trajectory. He earned a Bachelor of Science in industrial distribution technology from Central Washington University in 1982, a Bachelor of Science mechanical and manufacturing engineering from Western Washington University in 1992, and a Master of Science in management from Antioch University Seattle in 1995. Mr. Fadenrecht further enhanced his qualifications through certifications, including configuration management II from the University of Arizona, lean manufacturing from the University of Kentucky, and shingijutsu kaizen training in Gifu, Japan. Additionally, he is a certified ski instructor.

Adding to his expertise, Mr. Fadenrecht held professional memberships in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). Beyond his professional pursuits, he has demonstrated a commitment to civic engagement as a founding board member of Partners In Management and as a troop leader with Scouting America.

As an author, Mr. Fadenrecht published "Donnelly's Dilemma" in 2024. An exciting corporate drama, "Donnelly's Dilemma" is the story of Jack Donnelly, the newly appointed president of the commercial airplanes division of his family's business, Donnelly Aerospace. Jack's main predicament is determining the changes needed to be put in place to save the business from failure while balancing and honoring the company's traditions.

Recognized for his ability to foster collaboration among diverse teams and drive excellence by leveraging individual strengths, Mr. Fadenrecht's most notable achievements have included the development and implementation of an integration visualization tool that was recognized at Info Week Activities in Las Vegas in 2014 as one of the top 10 software developments globally. This tool allowed simultaneous visualization and management of three to five million airplane design parts, facilitating their movement through digital space for optimal configuration. Earlier, in 2008, Mr. Fadenrecht led the creation of the universal configurator, which reduced airplane configuration time from over 10 months to just 15 minutes. This innovation had the potential to save Boeing approximately $200 million annually if applied organization-wide.

Mr. Fadenrecht's contributions have been recognized with several honors, such as the Technical Replication Award from Boeing in 2015. He attributes his success to his keen ability to identify individual talent within teams and empower individuals to utilize their strengths toward achieving organizational excellence. Looking ahead, Mr. Fadenrecht is working on his second book, a spy novel, and continues to consult within his areas of expertise.
