Our People

Our People Make the Difference

"Our people are everything. You can have a great strategy, but if you don’t have the people to execute, you have nothing. You can have a great mission statement, but if you don’t have the people who care about it, it’s not true."

— Tom Gores, Chairman and CEO Platinum Equity
