2012 Hall of Fame: David Harding - Small Start, Big Aspirations

"Along with partners Bob Poorman and Steve Anzalone, Dave heads a team that provides some of the best leadership that our industry has ever known," he adds. "They put their people first and reward them handsomely, and they take exceptional care of their customers."

Harding is proud of the fact that he has staff members in place that keep the business humming along, leaving him to ponder big-picture initiatives. "Because we've hired the 'best of the best' and mentored our managers to run their departments like a business, I get to spend most of my time mentoring and dreaming about the future of the business," he says. "I love the visionary aspect."
