Brian Wood, Vice President of Sales and Impact, CoreTech Leasing

Brian Wood, vice president of sales and impact at CoreTech Leasing, lives by words from the late Kobe Bryant: “Hard work outweighs talent every time.” Throughout his career in equipment leasing, Wood has attained individual accolades as a top-performing sales representative. He believes his leadership style, which is purpose-driven and adaptable, sets him apart because of his unwavering desire to witness the success of others around him.

To Wood, success first requires one to be persistent, consistent and driven. In addition, although talent isn’t the only or even most important differentiator to Wood, to achieve success, Woods says one must maximize the talent that they do have. The right environment with the right support system, Wood says, is also crucial for success, as such an environment will promote growth, provide beneficial support and inspire collaborative learning.

Wood has more than 10 years of sales experience and excels in building a team of passionate and hard-working individuals. CoreTech Leasing’s approach to business requires driven individuals and those that have a desire to assist clients in achieving mutually beneficial solutions. His team embraces the mantra “do what is right, not what is easy.” With any form of growth, Wood says, the journey will have trials and tribulations, but with the right team and mission, everything becomes attainable.

As vice president of sales and impact, Wood oversees the national and regional sales team at CoreTech Leasing to promote growth and foster a positive culture. Surrounding himself with people that provide motivation and encourage growth, Wood encourages his team to inspire collaborative learning. He uses his skills in equipment leasing, negotiation, team development, new employee training, sales and business development to aid him in his efforts for his team.
