Evaluation committees spent months analyzing research and
feedback in order to determine the rankings, which are based on the
COO's performance in 24 key areas.
"I am humbled and honored to be named a Top COO alongside
so many extraordinary COOs in the nation. I credit much of my
success to the hard work and dedication of the outstanding
employees at USANA Health Sciences," Truett said.
According to ExecRank, being named a top COO is a
monumental accomplishment. The rankings are heavily based on the
COO's abilities to execute operational efficiencies that improve
profit margins and the company's return on equity. Also weighing in
on the rankings are recommendations provided by the chief executive
officers and chief financial officers of the finalists. In addition
to these praises, Truett was selected based upon his work and
reputation in the industry.
Dave Wentz, CEO of USANA
Health Sciences, said, "To have our COO be named one of the best in
the nation is quite an achievement, but it comes as no surprise to
me because Roy Truett exemplifies
efficiency. He has been instrumental in the creation of lean
operating practices and has championed progressive ideas in
enterprise and technology. Our company has benefitted greatly
through the innovative work of Mr. Truett."
