What attracted Chris to Ergotron was the fantastic opportunity to make a difference in people's lives. Ergotron manufactures sit-to-stand desks to keep workers productive while on their feet. Continuous sitting leads to weight gain, diabetes, and heart disease. Sit-to-stand desks offer the worker the ability to stand at will while remaining productive - increasing blood flow, improving posture, and ramping up metabolism.As the key contact at Ergotron for SYNNEX, Chris provided guidance back to the executive team on necessary actions to grow market penetration.
