Having worked with people around the globe, Bowman said he has learned that communication is key to any successful organization.
"Clear communication really solves a lot of problems," Bowman said.
Having been named senior quality engineer for Viega's McPherson facility in October, Bowman said the spirit of cooperation and communication at the plant has helped him quickly take to his new role.
Based in Wichita, Viega manufactures plumbing, radiant heating and snow-melting products.
Bowman said his primary duties are supporting the manufacturing process and helping ensure the quality of the company's products.
Originally from Lenexa, he graduated from Kansas State University in 1994 with a bachelor's degree in industrial engineering.
After college, the desire to help others led him to join the Peace Corps.
Bowman spent two years in the South Pacific working as a math teacher in secondary education programs.
He returned to the United States in 2002. Bowman has four years of manufacturing experience with Auth-Florence and Cameron Compression.
Bowman said his varied background has taught him that he can solve almost any problem, but only if he acknowledges the tools he has to work with.
