Bill has been a driving force behind Networking for a Brighter Future. His ability to bring employers and agencies to the table is amazing. He is a man of action- that has helped expand a small group of service agencies into a structured organization known and respected by the public.

August 2, 2009 To Whom It May Concern: It has been a personal and professional pleasure to know Bill Halligan for the past ten years, working directly with him in the role of Director of Inside Sales from 2000 – 2004. While working together for only four years, Bill’s success with CareCentric spans over 11 years. During his career, he has made numerous and significant contributions to the organization in each position he held. Bill has the very rare ability to combine technical knowledge with sound sales skills and a results focus. He took the time to learn and understand the mechanics and engineering of the company’s product lines and has been extremely successful despite selling software and solutions that were 10 years behind that of the competition. Bill was a leader for the company. During several years of severe financial pressure and challenge, Bill remained focused and exceeded his quota each year. His performance stood out as an example to his team and to every employee in the company. His dedicated effort and performance directly contributed to the company being able to regain its financial footing, pay down debt, and develop a new product for sale in the marketplace. His leadership extends beyond his monthly, quarterly, and annual sales performance. Bill is a leader by example. Given our need for improved financial performance, Bill was asked to re-design his department, terminate personnel, and adjust commission plans. He executed each with professionalism, sensitivity for the employee and an unquestionable personal commitment. The greatest attributes I can share regarding Bill are his integrity and optimism. Bill is very well respected by every customer. He is trusted as a man of his word and diligently follows up. During difficult conversations, Bill’s sincerity and reassurance is always present and quickly disarms an emotional and impatient customer. Bill would be a fine addition to any sales or operational team in a senior role requiring internal and external leadership. He has consistently demonstrated his loyalty and commitment, regardless of the situation or likely outcome. He is one of a very limited number of professionals that I would enjoy having the chance to work with again.
