I consider it an honor to have worked on Kurt Schwahn's team while he was at Newell Rubbermaid as Director of Sales. His leadership, guidance and commitment to our team as well as our customers was inspiring. There are 2 types of leaders in the world: those who we follow because we have to, and those who we follow because we want to. I am proud and glad to say that Kurt is a great example of a leader that people want to follow. I would proudly recommend him for any leadership role with any organization that his career leads him to.
