Before Ingram Micro, Monié was the head of LATAM operations at Honeywell International and APAC operations at Allied Signal, where he led the company's expansion into China and India. Monié has been a member of the board of directors of Amazon since November 2008, and was recently elected to the board of Ingram Micro in November 2011.
