These special honorees are chosen based on their professional accomplishments, academic achievements, and leadership abilities.

He also designed and established system panel specifications and objectives based on business requirements and cost effectiveness, and provided recommendations to management personnel.

Mr. Markfort's background in business systems has uniquely positioned him for his role with Zimmer Spine. He excels in project management, as well as organizational integrations and migrations, application development and deployment, and business process streamlining due to new and expanding business development and acquisitions.
