“I am excited to be joining a team that prioritizes its people,” said Odegaard. “My belief has always been that leaders have a duty to inspire team members to be engaged every day. I look forward to integrating operational excellence initiatives through a collaborative approach that motivates team members to challenge themselves and enables them to positively realize what they are able to achieve.”
