Managing Director, National Center for the Middle Market

​Doug Farren, Managing Director of the National Center for the Middle Market at The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business is confirmed to speak at the Chamber's Morning Access: Education and Workforce Development breakfast on October 13, 2017. This breakfast provides an opportunity for business and education leaders to connect directly in a relaxed business setting.  

In his role, Doug leads the day-to-day operations of the Center which include research, corporate outreach, and student activities in addition to long-range strategic planning.  Prior to launching the NCMM in 2011, he spent 10 years with LBrands, where he worked in various roles including Supply Chain Planning, Distribution Center Operations, and Financial Planning and Analysis supporting brands such as Victoria’s Secret and Bath and Body Works . Farren started with LBrands as a summer intern while completing his MBA in Operations and Logistics Management at Fisher. Farren’s previous experience includes business management for Six Sigma Qualtec, a process improvement consulting firm based on Scottsdale, Arizona. His primary functions included marketing strategy and on-site training and implementation.  As part of his responsibilities, he was certified in 1998 as a Six Sigma Black Belt in Transactional Quality.  Farren attended Penn State University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science with a focus on business management and was a member of the football program as a player and student assistant coach.

Middle market companies are the bedrock of the U.S. economy and are creators of sustainable jobs across all industries.  However, according to recent research from the National Center for the Middle Market (NCMM), 4 out of 10 companies say the lack of necessary talent is constraining their ability to grow.  While large companies have the resources to build effective recruiting processes, and small companies may have fewer needs, the middle market tends to get lost in the shuffle of effective programs and best practices to overcome these challenges.  Come hear about the concerns of middle market companies and what can be done to help address the workforce development challenge.
