Mathew Witte has sat in every seat at the strategy-execution table: frontline operator, hands-on technology implementer, executive buyer, and software CEO. That rare, full-circle vantage point built his central thesis: most organizations don't have a strategy problem or an execution problem. They have a gap between the two, and that gap is where profitability, service, and risk quietly erode. He calls this dynamic the Execution Paradox™, and closing that gap is what allows all three to improve at once, rather than forcing leaders to trade one for another.

He built that view over nearly two decades leading warehouse and delivery operations for a Fortune 500 manufacturer, where he ran a network of 50+ distribution centers, 2,000+ employees, and a $200+ million budget supporting more than $5 billion in annual sales, then guided the business through a top-to-bottom performance reset. He later took the CEO seat at the largest division of a global supply chain optimization company, where he reset performance across sales, consulting, and customer success and tripled historical EBITDA.

Today he is Founder of CatalystSC Partners, where he helps leadership teams close the strategy-execution gap and turn intent into operating reality. He serves on the University of Georgia Supply Chain Advisory Board and is the author of the forthcoming book The Execution Paradox, releasing October 2026.

A dynamic, energizing speaker, Witte is as comfortable challenging a boardroom of executives as he is engaging a classroom of students, moving fluidly between strategic and tactical conversations. His talks draw on real turnarounds, not theory, to show audiences why digital transformation so often can hit its stated targets, yet still fail.

I’ve always been fascinated by what keeps an aircraft safely flying long after it leaves the factory. Behind every flight is a maintenance program built from thousands of technical requirements, engineering decisions, regulatory obligations, and lessons learned from aircraft operating around the world. That is the part of aviation where I have built my career.

I currently work as a Manager of Maintenance Programs at Vista America, specializing in aircraft maintenance programs, continuing airworthiness, OEM technical data, regulatory compliance, reliability, and maintenance analytics. My work involves turning complex technical and regulatory information—from MPDs and Airworthiness Directives to Service Bulletins, STCs, and ICAs—into maintenance requirements that can be effectively managed in real-world operations.

Beyond my professional role, I serve as a Board Director of the Ohio Aviation Association, where I have the opportunity to contribute to broader conversations around aviation development, industry collaboration, and the future aviation workforce.

One area that particularly interests me is what happens when traditional aviation engineering meets data analytics and artificial intelligence. I believe the next evolution of aircraft maintenance will not simply be about predicting failures. It will also be about using data and intelligent tools to better understand technical information, identify changes, improve reliability, support engineers, and make maintenance programs more accurate and responsive.

My background combines aviation and analytics, including a Master’s in Business Analytics from Kent State University, a Master’s in Aviation, and a Diploma in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering.

When I speak, I like to take complicated aviation topics and connect them to the practical challenges professionals face every day. I enjoy sharing what I have learned, exchanging ideas with others in the industry, and exploring a simple question that continues to drive my work:
How can we make aircraft maintenance smarter without compromising the discipline, traceability, and safety that aviation demands?

I'm Ashok, a Cloud platform engineer at GPR, a robotics/ autonomous vehicle positioning company. I'm building our cloud platform end to end: networks, clusters, pipelines, databases, and the tooling that holds them together, with AI coding agents as my only teammates.

Here's what I find remarkable: a few years ago, what I'm doing would have been impossible for a single engineer. Modern infrastructure tooling and AI pair-programming have quietly moved that line, and I don't think our industry has absorbed yet what that means for team size, cost, and who gets to build platforms at all.

We are actively working on shipping this to production in coming months.  The next biggest challenge we are eager to solve and that in itself could be second half of the story: one engineer can now build a platform, but how does one engineer operate it at scale?

This is my first conference talk.

Francis Walsh III has dedicated his professional life to leading and strengthening a long-established American logistics company. As chairman and chief executive officer, he oversees a nationwide operation that has continued to expand since 1952 while remaining focused on the fundamental work of hauling freight, protecting shipments, and supporting customers who depend on reliable performance.

He leads a third-generation, family-owned business operating across transportation, logistics, supply chain, and storage from its headquarters in New Jersey. The organization provides integrated services that address the full range of supply-chain needs, built on reliability, coordination, and disciplined execution.

His connection to the industry began early in life. Raised in a family deeply involved in transportation and logistics, he was exposed to the realities and pressures of the business from a young age. Warehouses, terminals, trucks, and schedules were familiar parts of daily experience, shaping an understanding of how decisions made at the executive level affect people working throughout operations.

When Francis joined the company full-time in February of 1994, Francis Walsh brought practical knowledge developed through years of observation and hands-on involvement. Rather than stepping into leadership removed from daily operations, he learned the business by engaging directly with its many functions. Over time, he advanced through every level of the organization and ultimately assumed leadership following more than four decades of family stewardship. He views employees as an extension of family and clients as long-term partners, reflected in relationships that have endured for decades.

That operational foundation continues to guide his leadership approach. As a former airline executive, he evaluates growth and strategy with an operator’s mindset, emphasizing efficiency, safety, and accountability. Under his leadership, the company has expanded its national network of facilities, equipment, and transportation assets while maintaining consistent execution.

A defining focus of his leadership has been cargo security. As supply-chain risks have grown more complex, Walsh has invested in systems, training, and procedures designed to safeguard customer assets. These efforts have contributed to industry recognition and supported a reputation for dependability, even during periods of widespread disruption.

Beyond daily operations, he remains committed to community involvement and philanthropy, guided by values shaped early in life and carried forward with his family. For Francis Walsh of Saddle River, leadership is rooted in preparation, steady judgment, and responsibility, with decisions made to endure over time rather than serve short-term interests.
