Steve not only set an excellent example for his team, but has the unique ability to motivate his managers and sales team members to strive for their full potential both personally as well as professionally. His focus on personnel develop and achieving organizational goals allows Steve to consistently exceed expectations which is a great quality of a leader." and ""Steve is a big-picture type of manager but does not lose sight of the smaller tasks it takes to be successful. He has the ability to influence others around him to follow his lead and work hard to accomplish the overall goal. Steve does not micromanage his direct reports but does expect you are working towards your established goals. He expects you to understand your business and be able to provide a current status report on where it is and where its headed. Steve is very good at acknowledging and working with an employee's strengths and weaknesses. He is very helpful in coaching a person to achieve their full potential. His recommendations helped me better understand the culture in our work environment, which in turn helped me resolve issues I faced in advancing and making my business more successful. His personality is infectious. He possesses a good sense of humor and uses this talent to put you at ease. Steve led by example and displayed a strong work ethic. The only priority above his job was his family and I considered it a privilege to work with him . . . I would do so again without hesitation.""
