MEET THE FOUNDER

Leadership Built on Nearly Four Decades of Experience

I’m Tim Hadding, founder of Hadding & Associates and a senior supply chain executive with nearly four decades of experience leading large-scale manufacturing and distribution operations. Throughout my career, I’ve helped organizations improve operational performance, develop high-performing teams, control costs, and build cultures grounded in accountability, safety, quality, and continuous improvement.

My results-driven leadership approach, Solution-Driven Leadership (SDL), is the foundation of H&A’s Center of Excellence. I created Hadding & Associates to bring the lessons of real-world leadership experience to organizations looking to strengthen their people, performance, and culture.

In 2026, I was honored to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from McDonald’s at the McDonald’s Worldwide Convention in Las Vegas, recognizing more than two decades of contributions to supply chain excellence, leadership, innovation, and operational performance.
