ABOUT JIM B.
With 25 years in the automotive industry—both at the OEM and supplier level—I’ve gained a hands-on understanding of what really drives performance in fast-paced, ever-evolving retail dealership and collision center environments. Operationally, I’ve led high-performing teams, rolled out impactful solutions, and championed sustained process improvements in partnerships with some of the world’s most prestigious brands. But more than anything, I’ve learned the value of listening closely, asking the right questions, and working side-by-side with clients to deliver measurable results. That mindset also helped me consistently exceed sales objectives while serving in previous Sales Leader and individual account management roles.My leadership style is deeply influenced by my time in the military and as a college athlete. I believe in clear goals, honest conversations, and showing up for my team in a way that empowers them to grow and succeed. Whether I’m standing up a new program, streamlining workflows with digital technologies, or leading a team through a transition, I bring structure, energy, and a people-first focus to everything I do.
