Mitch Schock, CEO of Bentek, attributes his journey to leadership to a deep understanding of his peers' business functions. He credits his growth as a CEO to his ability to collaborate effectively and achieve results through others.
Mitch’s core focus, both internally and externally, revolves around three key objectives: Attract, Train, and Retain talent. He prioritizes setting clear and simple success metrics, ensuring his team stays aligned and motivated. Given the cyclical nature of Bentek’s industry, Mitch consistently invests time, money, and effort into diversifying the business to ensure long-term stability and growth.
For those seeking inspiration, Mitch recommends The Goal: A Process of Ongoing Improvement by Eliyahu M. Goldratt—a book that has influenced his approach to continuous improvement and strategic thinking.
