“I wanted to pursue the CLFP as I knew going through this program would help me see the bigger picture of the leasing lifecycle and put me in a network of many respected industry peers,” Catlett said. “Being a credit guy, I play a smaller, yet vital role in the overall process. Now, rather than just having the 10,000-foot point of view on how each department integrates, I can collaborate on a much higher level to ensure success for all involved.”
Wood said, “I decided to pursue the Certified Lease & Finance Professional (CLFP) designation to deepen my expertise and ensure I’m bringing the best possible solutions to my clients. In an industry where trust and knowledge matter, I wanted to back up my advisory approach with credentials that reflect that commitment. I’m grateful to my company, CoreTech Leasing, for fostering a culture that truly values continued learning and invests in the growth of its people. That support played a big part in my decision to take this next step. It’s an honor to join so many talented CLFPs across the industry, and I’m excited to be part of this growing community of professionals who are raising the bar every day.”
