General Counsel
CLARK Material Handling Company
Lexington, KY


In the midst of many challenges that we do not yet control, it is important that we do everything possible to proactively lead, drive and map where we are headed. Understanding that the future will include many new expectations, it is important that we start preparing now for when we may be able to reopen our festivals and events. This committee began to define the new expectations that all events can use to overlay with their formally ‘normal’ events, with the goal of reimagining how you might put those expectations into place and prepare for the effects they may have on operational plans, as well as financial and human resources.

Jeff English, CFEE is the General Counsel and Corporate Secretary for CLARK Material Handling Company in Lexington, KY.
