During my tenure at Monster, Mike was consistently ranked towards the top of the list of highest performing Regional Managers. Having reported into him directly, I saw why this was the case. Mike takes a personal, vested interested in each colleague, each client, and each deal. He always has the client's best interest in mind, and his ability to drive new sales and revenue was a direct result.
