“I had the pleasure of working side by side with Don Cook at Core-Mark International at a challenging time for the organization. During our time working together, I realized not only was he knowledgeable in the various areas of logistics, operations, transportation, and safety but he possessed business acumen which reached beyond the scope of his responsibilities and aided him understanding the bigger picture and aligning his work to positively impact it. He is a detailed oriented and he is well organized. He is also a conscious leader who is down to earth, approachable, helpful and needless to say, a true team player who brings solutions to the table. He is very supportive with his staff and peers. He is goal focused and self driven. He is a strategic leader, motivator and influencer who is always willing to lend a hand. He is well respected in his professional and industry both internally and externally of Core-mark. His can-do attitude is contagious. He has a way of making his team feel empowered and performing at the highest levels. Despite his success at Core-Mark which is shown in the various positions he has been given responsibility for over his long career with the company, he has remained humble. If I were to sum this up into a few words, I would say, Don is who you'd want on your team and I’d bet on him each and every time. What more can you ask for? In summary, I learned a lot from Don and would jump at the chance to work with him again. Not only is he competent but he makes the difficult times fun and the fun times great. As such, I recommend him without reservation for any leadership opportunity in his chosen profession, field and/or industry.”
