January 23, 2015 - Crane industry veteran Ron Schad recently joined Liebherr-Werk Nenzing, responsible for sales of crawler cranes, duty-cycle cranes, and foundation cranes in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. 

Schad most recently worked for as president and CEO of Essex Rental Corp. During his 14-year tenure, Schad developed Essex into a respected leader in the crane rental business. Prior to the year 2000, Schad spent nearly 15 years with Manitowoc, where he was executive vice president of the crawler crane business.
