Jagtar is a
Jim Pribble
Jagtar is fearless, undaunted, intelligent, and loyal to the mission. After countless hours ‘in the arena’ with Jag, I can assure you that there can be no finer addition to a senior management team than Jagtar Taggar. As I took the reins at Thermon Heating Systems and began the integration of the newly acquired business with the enterprise, I immediately realized that we needed top finance talent if we were to be successful. We faced the need to professionalize the discipline, establish the FP&A function, and – as a public company – become SOX compliant. I needed the best. Enter Jagtar. He understands that the business doesn’t revolve around a discipline, but that a teams’ expertise is brought together to work as a system. Engaged in the hard work of running a newly acquired business, he rarely spoke to the nuts and bolts of the accounting or finance; instead, he always brought the business challenges we faced to the table and worked for holistic solutions. This collaborative approach grew the trust and respect of the team while enabling forward progress for the company. If you are faced with tough business challenges and need someone you can count on to rally the troops, get the numbers right, and get the job done – you must add Jagtar to your team.
