Meet The Team at Faro Partners

 

 

Just like a lighthouse (Faro in Spanish) guides ships safety to the harbor, the same is true of our team.
We help guide companies into an enterprise that prioritizes process performance excellence to help reduce risk, improve revenue, and promote a healthy culture.

Audie_800x800

Audie Penn, Managing Partner, started his career over 35-years ago. At Caterpillar, Inc. as the group manager of the North American assembly operations for hydraulic excavators, he worked with his team to ensure that the process was running smoothly and when a change was needed, he communicated the ”why” and supported the “how” to achieve new outcomes.  The key was the connection of functional and relational processes. After experiencing the power of that connection and the success of organizational change, he committed his career to helping others achieve this same success. In 2019, he brought together other like-minded executives to form Faro Partners.
