“Effective leadership is defined by results.” – Peter Drucker Leadership isn’t just about ideas or inspiration—it’s about driving meaningful outcomes. Here’s to the leaders who consistently set goals, take action, and deliver results that inspire others to follow. I want to take a moment to express gratitude for the incredible leaders who are effective leaders as defined above. These have shaped, inspired, and walked alongside me in my journey and as friends. Among them are Pat Lavelle, Karen Chupka, Daniel Pidgeon, Gary Shapiro, Shawn Hansson, Kinsey Fabrizio, Jake Sigal, Deena Ghazarian, David Lorsch, Sally Washlow, Lawrence Richenstein, John Shalam, Loyd Ivey, Thomas Malone, @Derek Pace, Bob Struble, Todd Ramsey, Bernie Sapienza and oh so many more! If your name isn’t on this list, please know you are not forgotten—it’s simply impossible to include everyone in one post. I’ve also been fortunate to work with and learn from some remarkable individuals who lead with purpose and focus on results. I’ll admit, my priorities haven’t always perfectly aligned with theirs, and perhaps my focus on the numbers wasn’t as sharp as they wished. But through it all, I am deeply grateful for the trust they placed in me to lead portions of their businesses, for the shared successes we celebrated, the failures I endured, and the invaluable lessons that I have learned from it all. These include Tony Frangiosa, Bill Fox, Loyd Ivey, John Galante, and especially the US Navy Chiefs and Officers who I served with—you have each contributed to the person I am today, and I thank you for it. #Leadership #PeterDrucker #ResultsDriven #Inspiration #ProfessionalGrowth

Thanks Bob, we both have come a long way from the early days of selling and installing car stereos at Sound Installations, then later as pioneers selling software and computers to retailers at Sound Solutions. It has been a fun ride, not without a few bumps, that has brought us to our destinations today. Thanks for taking the trip with me early on.
