He is a leader that never missed deadlines or fail short of objectives. Greg understands and knows business well and moreover understands what levers to pull so a business will grow profitably.

Greg Weber
Recommendation for Greg Nelson I was initially impressed with Greg Nelson's enthusiasm, communication skills and leadership when he joined our team as a Branch General Manager 3 years ago. During the three years Greg worked with our team he continued to demonstrate these qualities on a consistent basis, plus guided an underperforming business unit to top end growth and profitability, and I ardently endorse him for any Leadership position. Greg is reliable, dedicated and has a pedigree of great empirical experience. His ability to lead a team to rally around a common vision is unparalleled, and it is because of his excellence in this area that Greg repeatedly was asked to mentor new employees in our region. Greg multitasks effectively and is able to handle a high-volume workload. He consistently met or surpassed all of our KPIs/metrics (including customer satisfaction, face-to-face sales call activities and on-time service performance), and Greg communicated effectively both up and down the organization lines. Greg's ability to work with minimal supervision, unwavering commitment to exceeding customer expectations, team player mind-set and willingness to embrace change were of particular value to me as a former Branch General Manager. I consistently received feedback from customers regarding Greg's follow-up and follow-through to address deviations from the expected level of service. Organized and diligent, Greg proved to be a quick study getting up to speed with our technology systems and software, which enabled Greg to navigate through our morass of corporate bureaucratic and administrative procedures. Greg is a hardworking, top-performing Sales and Operations Professional. He has my highest recommendation, and I am happy to furnish more details if you would like additional information.
