Cleveland Magazine has named Tim Swanson a Cleveland 500 leader.  As the magazine describes it, this first-ever Cleveland 500 listing includes leaders, doers, visionaries and idea generators who help shape the city and the community.  The listing encompasses leaders in the five-county Cleveland metropolitan area.

“I’ve worked for leaders who placed trust in me and let me make big decisions (and sometimes mistakes).  I believe the best way to motivate is to build trust and push decisions downward into the organization … elevating empowerment and developing an entrepreneurial spirit,” Tim says.
 
Asked to share advice for others aspiring to leadership roles in manufacturing and other fields, Tim emphasizes fundamental attributes.  “Keep your head down, stay focused, get results – and good things will happen,” he counsels.
