Dana is the best leader I’ve had the opportunity and privilege to work with. He has a way of bringing out the best in those he leads. In every setting and conversation I’ve had with Dana, I always learned something new and insightful that I could take back and apply myself to. His experience in sales and leadership sets him apart. I’ve never felt as empowered to reach my full potential as I did when reporting to Dana and I’m forever grateful for the learning and leadership opportunity it was to serve under his direct tutelage. 

Without a doubt, Dana has been a leader who has had the most impact on me professionally and personally. Dana’s leadership style is such that he earns respect of all that he comes in contact with. He is a great listener, understands a challenge or situation quickly, has great insight and knowledge making him an incredible teacher and mentor. Combine this with his impeccable character and what you’ll get is someone who defines servant leadership! Dana is a role model for anyone who desires to be a great leader, and with his teachings and by his example, has developed many to achieve this status.

I had the privilege of working for Dana as his Direct Dales manager. Dana has great communication skills and an ability to raise the performance of the people that surround him with coaching, training and modeling of sales techniques. Dana is driven, compassionate, and a professional that produces results that made him such a valuable asset to U.S. Cellular. My success has been predicated on being aligned with this gifted professional.

Dana is a true leader among leaders and a master of his craft. He is known by many for his exceptional work ethic and his ability to consistently find a way to deliver top results. However, to the many that have reported to him over his career, he’s most known for his natural ability and passion to connect with people and to help them reach their highest potential.
