Energy Marketing Managers Meet

Nearly 40 energy marketing managers from across the GROWMARK System met at the brand-new Marriott hotel in Bloomington for a two-day meeting on sales leadership.

The attendees heard presentations from Gordon Lee, GROWMARK Southern Region manager, on leadership lessons learned from his personal experiences in the System; Andrew Bennett on creating a culture conducive to building strong relationships with customers and making sure everyone in the company is working toward the same goals and objectives; and Kyle Fricke from Afton Chemical, manufacturers of Dieselex Gold. GROWMARK Energy Division personnel also spoke to the group.

"The program was well-received and I think attendees were able to take home some useful information," said Ron Durdle, energy marketing and communications manager. "We are working on several ways to follow up on some of the ideas brought out by our speakers."

Copies of both Lee and Bennett's presentations are available on the Energy Resources site.
