Our thanks and gratitude to Jeff Addis, a principal at Mayo Associates, for his service as a member of our Sales Advisory Council. After four years of providing his counsel and insight, Jeff is transitioning off the Council and will be replaced by his colleague, Patrick Manning. Patrick has recently been named a principal at Mayo Associates and will bring new perspectives and energy to the Council.
Please join us in thanking Jeff and welcoming Patrick!
