many talented and dedicated players. Being recognized by peers and

Northeast Ohio’s economy is truly gratifying.”

Exterran, Nestle USA, Steel Warehouse, Valerus and more. He has

development leaders and elevate the conversation around best
practices in the industry,” said Ron Kitchens, managing
partner of Consultant Connect. “Each leader named is
absolutely deserving of this recognition for the work they do every
day to build their communities.”
