As chief sales, marketing and strategy officer for UPS, Alan Gershenhorn directs global sales, customer relationship management, segment marketing, product development, electronic commerce, revenue management, marketing research and corporate strategy. Under his direction, UPS is focused on deepening customer relationships through an expanded offering of supply chain and technology-based services and solutions.

Gershenhorn is also a member of the UPS Management Committee, which is responsible for the day-to-day management of the company.

Prior to his current position, Gershenhorn served as president of UPS International where he was responsible for the UPS international package, freight forwarding, customs brokerage and logistics businesses.

A native of Long Island, N.Y., Gershenhorn began his UPS career in Houston in 1979 as a part-time package handler. He has held various U.S. and international positions of increasing responsibility in operations, engineering, freight forwarding, logistics, customs brokerage, marketing, strategy and retail services.

After several operational and engineering assignments in Texas, Gershenhorn joined the company's International Marketing Department in 1993, where he helped launch new international services during a period of rapid global growth for UPS. Subsequent assignments took him to Europe and then to Canada, where as the country's vice president of marketing and later as operations district manager he helped restructure UPS Canada's operations and services, resulting in significant increases in revenues and profit.

Gershenhorn also has served in several other significant leadership positions. These include the UPS Corporate Strategy Group, where he was responsible for the company's retail strategy and operations worldwide and the integration of Mail Boxes Etc. (now primarily recognized as The UPS Store); the president of UPS Canada; the president of UPS Supply Chain Solutions (SCS) Global Transportation and Shared Services; and the president of UPS SCS operations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa.

He received a degree in finance from the University of Houston.
