Frank was an incredible mentor to me during his time at our organization. He is extremely organized and thorough and one of the hardest workers I’ve ever encountered. He was able to rapidly identify several critical areas for improvement that will allow us to scale our organization, eliminate inefficiencies, and increase revenue. Frank is extremely intelligent and very direct in his communication. Capable of wearing multiple hats within any organization, Frank is an extremely valuable asset that receives my highest recommendation.

I don’t know Frank too well personally, but I have a feeling he’s someone you’d like to have around in an emergency. We were having serious concerns about our first order with a new manufacturer until Frank was brought into the company. He sorted out what I can only imagine was a mess of a project, managed our expectations, and still managed to get our order to us ahead of time. I’d highly recommend him!

I am writing this letter on behalf of Frank Petro whom I believe would make an outstanding CEO for your organization. I have worked with Frank since September of 2013, and he has been instrumental in helping me implement and execute digital strategy and brand development for Cabinets Your Way/Houston Cabinetry. In addition, he introduced much needed structure and worked tirelessly in order to improve financial concerns the company was faced with. Frank has helped me grow professionally in my position as Marketing Director, and offered advice and insight when needed. He has proven on several occasions he is an extremely detail-oriented, highly accessible executive who has always made my job easier. Frank has worked successfully in his management position within this company, and his wide variety of experience makes him an excellent candidate for the top executive spot. He is a visionary in his industry, yet highly approachable by junior staff. I have watched him listen to the ideas of employees and use their experiences to formulate successful strategies that have helped Cabinets Your Way/Houston Cabinetry to achieve more stability than the company has seen under previous leadership. He has insight that surpasses his years, a competitive nature and determination that cannot be beat, and has earned the respect of everyone in the company. It is my pleasure to recommend Frank Petro for the position of CEO of your organization. His high level of expertise, healthy self-confidence and excellent leadership skills combine to make him an asset to any organization.

I have had the privilege of working with Frank for the past several years. I have found him to be very diligent and reliable in his duties with our firm. He was employed as the Southeast area manager for our firm. He was responsible for 4 branches. Frank had 6 direct reports and approximately 35 total reports. In addition to being a careful listener, Frank is a take-charge person who is able to present creative ideas and communicate the benefits. He has successfully planned and completed many difficult projects that have resulted in increased efficiencies, improved procedures and very satisfied clients. Frank was also extraordinarily helpful in other areas of the company. In addition, to improving our procedures he also assumed a leadership role in after hour call center to improve our customer service and dispatch times. I highly recommend Frank for employment. He is a highly articulate professional. He would make a great asset to any organization.
