“I had the pleasure of having Wade as my friend, manager, and mentor for 4 years at the Southwestern Company. The first year I worked with Wade I doubled my sales and became the number 11 sales person in the entire company. Inspired by my success and his strong belief that I had only scratched the service of my talent, the following year he personally took me under his wing to show me the ropes of recruiting. Prior to Wade I had yet to recruit a single person that stuck around for more than 6 weeks. After having Wade as my personal coach/mentor I attained the rank of the #3 recruiter in the entire company and was able to win several prestigious recruiting awards every year after. The ability he has to bring out self-confidence and skill in others is nothing short of miraculous. He has the unique talent of being able to nurture and gain trust with people at a time when they need it most but also has the foresight and intuition to know when those same individuals should be challenged and empowered to achieve more than they previously thought possible. With Wade you never have to doubt or question whether he has your best interest at heart.”
