Core Belief: The proof of a good Manager is shown when they are on vacation or moved to a different store, the store they previously worked should continue to run like you had never left.I view broken as a challenge, not a defeat.Experience:I began my automotive career the same as everyone; as a sales person, after only 3 months in the business I began being trained, learned and worked in almost every position. My first automotive job was with an owner that told me he would make me a GM and believed that a GM was more than a title, he beloved a GM should know (walk a mile in their shoes) every position within a dealership and insisted that I work, learn and be trained in every position. Sending me to specific training like Resource Group, JM&A etc. Making me switch positions every 3-4 months for the next 8 years of my career, I received training and worked in the following positions… Assistant Comptroller, Accounts Receivable & Payable, Titles, Service Writer, Assistant Service Manager, Parts Counter, Assistant Parts Manager, Closer/ASM, Finance Manager, Finance Director, Internet Director, Used Car Manager, New Car Manager, New Car Director, GSM and GM.Management Style:Situational Management: Effectively employ multiple management styles "as needed" to gain the best response from employees and teams. Management styles include active, persuasive, participative, collaborative, transformational, democratic, and dictatorial. Leadership: Lead by example, always try to train my replacement.
