Comment: W. W. Grainger is a long-existing and important company, but I am not finding any significant coverage about Ryan to bolster a claim that he's individually notable, by virtue of his positions at the company or otherwise.  I note that several substantial blocks of primary-source-based content—content setting forth his positions and a few awards he's received—have been deleted from this article, which is not the best practice when an article is being considered for AfD; nevertheless, even with this content restored, and even assuming that secondary sources exist for some of this information, the case for his |notability, in the Wikipedian sense, does not appear to be strong
