    Recommendation Roberta Heller Sales, Recruiting, and Human Capital Manager "I had the pleasure of partnering with Mike Simon on the board of the Northern Ohio Region Porsche Club of America for 4 years. He had the most beautiful gift in dealing with people using humor and a gentle approach that welcomed them and encouraged involvement. He was elected Vice President and also took an active role in Membership and partnered in developing new venues to engage more people in club activities. A series of garage tours bubbled out of one of the brainstorming sessions and was a huge hit with over 100 people attending each. When Mike moved to Florida, NOR lost a valuable resource, leader, and friend." January 5, 2011, Roberta worked directly with Michael A. at Porsche Club of America
