Jim Butman

TDS Telecom wouldn’t have the immense amount of growth it’s experienced without the leadership of Butman, who’s been with the company for more than 35 years. As TDS continues to add more communities to its footprint in Florida, Wisconsin, Montana and more, Butman leads its workforce as the company sets its sights on transforming its networks and products. It’ll be helped by its status as the largest recipient of FCC E-ACAM funds, which will require TDS to build at speeds of 100/20 Mbps to over 270,000 service addresses.

Do you personally still have a traditional cable video package? I do, and it is our TDSTV+ offering that merges linear with streaming options—it a great product!

TV series everyone should binge: “Breaking Bad” still wins in my book.
