Rodrigo Lopez
Many regional executives want the smallest call-in-rate (CIR), but Lopez can actually claim it. He helped his region achieve the lowest-ever percent CIR, a tremendous milestone. A seasoned storyteller, he often shares personal stories about customer experiences, leadership skills and process improvements with his team. The exec feels he’s just paying it forward. “Early in my career our GM in Orange County, Linda Hossinger, took an interest in my career,” Lopez recalls. “She was instrumental in my development and professional growth. I will always be grateful for the coaching and guidance she provided.”
