Ready To Challenge Status Quo? We Hope So!

Erik
General Manager – Health and Positioning Control

Ask most people how to get ahead and you’ll often hear the same answer: Work hard and do a good job. Erik has a few other things he’d suggest to associates who want to succeed and advance at The Timken Company. 

“We manufacture friction management and power transmission solutions that are sold in a complex global market. It’s important to ask questions, challenge the status quo and take ownership of your work. That’s how we get a deeper understanding of our customers’ needs and can offer them better solutions.”

Erik also emphasizes that associates “should not be afraid to make some mistakes. That’s the best way to explore new ideas.”
