Olathe, KS (PRWEB) January 8, 2006 -–
Dramatic company growth, combined with a talented group of leaders, spurred the recent decision to create four new vice president positions at PlattForm.
At the company’s annual Christmas party Dec. 16, four current PlattForm employees were appointed to VP positions. The new Vice Presidents and their positions are: Brian Hubbard, VP of Print Services; Tracy Kreikemeier, VP of Client Services; Mike McHugh, VP of Interactive Marketing; and John VanFleet, VP of Media Services.
“The selection was based on attributes all four candidates had in common: commitment to the company, leadership skills and willingness to take risks,” said Michael Platt, CEO and founder of PlattForm. The VPs themselves cited these traits, along with other characteristics, as determining factors in their successes to date.
“Working with great people, having influential mentors, and my own hunger to learn, grow and improve helped me get where I am today,” said VanFleet.
For the new leaders, being appointed to VP positions gives them an opportunity to expand their own careers while increasing their level of influence on PlattForm’s 300 plus employees.
“This is my chance to shape and mold the organization,” said McHugh. “This is my chance to lead the way and cast a vision for the group.”
This round of vice president appointments most likely won’t be the last.
“The consistent year-over-year growth produces a need for a larger Senior Management team as well as opportunity to recognize deserving leaders within our organization,” Platt said.
Within the past calendar year, PlattForm has experienced exponential growth, as evidenced by the 90 new employees added to the company.
