“Chad is a results driven senior leader with the ability to not only build successful teams, but grow and develop individuals. Chad ensures his team is set up for success. He consistently provides valuable support and direction rooted in a deep trust and understanding of the integral role his team plays within the organization. I had the privilege of working on Chad’s team for 4.5 years. As my manager, he allowed me to stretch and take the lead where applicable while guiding and supporting me every step of the way. Chad is not only an amazing leader, he is an outstanding marketer. His ability to always put the customer first while ensuring business needs are addressed, met and surpassed are second to none. It was an absolute joy being on Chad’s team and working together to make significant impacts to the business through loyalty and customer retention.”
