Eric Holcomb in December 2017. Before joining the department, Payne spent more than a decade at Honda Manufacturing of Indiana in various roles, including the chief administrator, general counsel, and compliance officer. He’s credited with starting several key initiatives, including the office of inclusion and diversity, corporate governance, and risk management.
