About Daniel Salazar

I am passionate about people and building relationships. I thrive seeing others grow, develop, and succeed; and therefore most enjoy being an advocate, mentor, coach, team leader, and connecting people. I am also passionate about strategy and execution. I find professional fulfillment in seeing individuals, teams, and organizations evaluate their goals, play to their strengths, and find ways to improve upon weaknesses. I believe the combination of human capital and strategy unlocks the secret to an organization’s competitive advantage. I have a proven record as an empathetic people leader and critical thinker with strong interpersonal skills, emotional intelligence, and business acumen. In my current role, I have the privilege of serving as Chief Executive Officer at ProAutomated — by far the most people-centric organization I’ve been a part of.
