Chad Severson has been serving as CEO for the company since January 1 of this year. Severson, who most recently served as president of InSinkErator, a division within Emerson Commercial & Residential Solutions, succeeds Pete Segar in the role.
As a senior leader with deep experience in building high performance teams across a variety of industries, Severson will focus the company on business strategy, innovation, lean execution and challenge existing conventions to drive greater appeal upon non-endemic audiences.
Severson wants to challenge leaders and management teams who are failing to invest in adopting dynamic work environments for their teams.
