In the first yearly executive board meeting led by company President Lewis Finley and CEO Erick Finley (plus other leading members) of Finley Asphalt & Concrete, the 50+ year paving company unanimously assembled to carve out a brand new and significant position of CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER- a leadership structure upgrade dedicated to meet the company’s 2018 expansion plans. This vital role was appointed to Mr. Glenn Shapiro on the eve of his first year anniversary when he assumed the title of Vice President.
By definition, a Chief Operating Officer position holds the leadership and management capacity necessary to ensure that the company has the proper operational controls in administrative, reporting procedures, and people systems. One who holds this rank shall pursue continued and overall growth of the organization from the various significant angles while supporting both financial strength and operational efficiency.
Fulfilling the title of COO, Glenn Shapiro was dubbed this position as part evidence of Finley’s evolutionary directive from the "family-style" blueprint it was founded with- to the modernizing roadmap that its future expects and deserves. He was carefully hand-selected based on his proven level of commitment to the company’s overall mission. "By modifying our leadership structure, we are (now) able to better diversify, manage our productivity, cover more ground and gain new strength from fresh ideas… and having Glenn carry that mantle represents our step in the right direction," states Erick Finley.
Mr. Shapiro defined his mark in the trade by working the many essential bases of growing an asphalt business from leadership positions. He spent over 12 years in the paving industry and earned his reputation and his holistic understanding of the world of asphalt. From companies on the rise to veteran pioneers like Finley, Glenn Shapiro’s stellar track record carries a consistent mark of renewed vision to support quality service while inspiring internal improvements for the company he represents. He led marketing teams, expansion projects and national campaigns for major asphalt companies in the Northeast (such as Greenpatch, Cold Mix Manufacturing, RCA Asphalt, and GemSeal to name a few). Glenn captured many major touchdowns in the municipal and commercial fronts while earning new trusting relationships from the top players.
