About Joel Beherndt

A growth-mindset, trusted relationships, positive leadership, and an all-in approach are my cornerstones for tackling challenges and seizing opportunities, in both professional and personal life. As a proven executive with a strong record of high performance, I apply these principles to guide customers and teams to transformative solutions for their most complex issues. My diverse experience and results across growth/sales, operations, and P&L leadership in professional services and industry offer a unique, empathetic perspective for leading and growing B2B businesses. I excel at building outperforming teams and organizations, consistently recognized for my enthusiasm, integrity, humility, and a learning-focused approach to realizing significant opportunities. CAREER PATH My \'engine burns hotter\' – a colleague\'s apt description of my drive. From an early paper routes to demanding farm work - grit, ownership, and tangible results have always been key. Putting myself through school at OSU fueled this ethic, leading me to Stryker, where I honed operational efficiency, built strong global relationships, and quickly advanced. Drawn by similar values and exceptional talent, I found Point B, where my EQ, energy, and problem-solving skills propelled me in professional services. My operator\'s mindset, gained as a buyer of services in industry, provided a unique empathy and focus on real-world, viable solutions for clients. My passion for growth, business development, and sales ignited, leading to leadership roles where I repeatedly built and rebuilt high-performing, engaged teams delivery exceptional results. Through my career I\'ve honed my superpowers: building outperforming teams, driving exceptional results with energy and engagement, fostering outstanding executive relationships, and consistently delivering in challenging environments. PERSONAL PASSIONS I\'m a doer who values shared experiences with family and friends. My past includes skiing, running, weightlifting, fishing, and triathlons. Today, I enjoy these through the lens of my two daughters: coaching their ski race teams, crabbing in Puget Sound, camping, and dragging them to my CrossFit. As avid swimmers with collegiate goals, our time revolves around the pool. We talk about competing at high levels – focusing on activation, accountability, consistency, drive, discipline, calm under pressure, peer leadership, balance, engagement, and – Fun!(Usually positive, with a few teenage eye rolls.) MY CREDO Positivity. Integrity. Humility. Grit. Learner. Father. Kindness. Achiever. Fitness. Balance.
