ABOUT CHRIS EAKIN
My passion is to help others and develop talent for the future. Teamwork is an essential part of everything I believe in and work at every day. I utilize Servant Leadership and a Collective Leadership mindset in my style of leadership. My focus is on engagement from the entire team and to grow confidence within the entire team. Focused training and development of talent that builds empowered teams to do what is needed without fear of making a mistake is important in my process of leading. We will make mistakes, but we all will learn and grow from it. To grow in knowledge and experience, we must be open-minded, listen to others\' ideas and be open to receive positive and negative feedback. My passion has always been to building engaging, empowered teams that adapt well to change. We win as a team and growth is shared. I\'m truly grateful and feel charged to do more as a Servant leader.Winning is contagious, let’s win together. There’s value in everyone, we all can make a difference.
