With appreciation
The Board of Directors and Management recognize the distinguished careers
and acknowledge the retirements of Jim Heath and Vivian Masson.

Jim Heath, President, Instruments division, is retiring after 27 years of dedicated service. Mr. Heath began his career in 1988 as a sales trainer with Instruments. Throughout his career, Mr. Heath progressed through a range of sales and general management roles, culminating in his appointment as President of the Instruments division in 2008. During his six-year tenure as President, division sales grew globally from approximately $1.2 billion to $1.8 billion.
Mr. Heath led with humility, concern for others, a strong work ethic and tremendous performance orientation. He built strong teams and stressed delivering results but also emphasized the importance of family, health and well-being and active participation in the Kalamazoo community. Mr. Heath’s efforts leave our powerful Instruments division well-positioned for continued success.

Vivian Masson, President, Trauma & Extremities division, is retiring after 27 years of dedicated service. Mr. Masson led the Mahwah, New Jersey–based division for 17 years; during his tenure, annual global sales grew from $175 million to over $1.2 billion, with 17 years of consecutive growth. Mr. Masson created an environment of R&D innovation, world-class manufacturing facilities and sales execution excellence.
Mr. Masson was integral to the acquisition of Memometal in 2011, which opened Stryker to the foot & ankle market, and the 2014 acquisition of Small Bone Innovations. We thank Mr. Masson for his years of dedication; he leaves the Trauma & Extremities organization well-positioned for future success.
