Fahim Ahmed leaving KC for Research Fellow Opportunity at Clorox
Dear Friends,
ASA and Happy New Year! As many of you may know that I have been contemplating retirement for some time, but it dragged on. Finally, I set the March 1 this year for the finale! But some great thing happened over the holiday break. You will be happy to learn as I am that I have been offered a life time career opportunity at Clorox R&D to head up The Global Laundry Product Technology as Research Fellow; it is the highest technical position in the company and this high level position also carries whole lot more responsibilities, deliverables and a few more greens (twice of my current compensation). My life long work experiences in innovative product development & commercialization; product inventions credited by some sixty patents have now paid off big time!
This top level R&D position was to be located at The Clorox Technical Center at Pleasanton, CA (Corporate Office in Oakland in the bay area of San Francisco) but I have negotiated my work location at a satellite R&D center in Atlanta with frequent trips to CA. Clorox is a huge consumer packaged products conglomerate with broad portfolio almost synonymous with chlorine bleach line of products and $6 billion sales. Very soon hopefully, I will be out of this cold climate in Kansas City and working out of Atlanta, much closer to my Greensboro, NC home and weekly commuting distance. We wil miss the freindship of fellow KC deshi. Please forgive us, pray for us and wish us good luck. This is most likely the last adventure of my professional life.
Best Regards,
Fahim Ahmed, Ph.D.
