Experience that holds up in the real world.

“As a director of AAB Building Systems Canada, I watched Tim turn a small Canadian company that was losing money, into a highly successful North American leader, with over 300 distributors, with the vast majority of sales coming from the very competitive US market. In just over 3 years, sales and profits increased by over 350% from a sales base of $9 million. His commitment to training and leadership development, were responsible for these outstanding results.”

“Over a 15 year period, Tim achieved enormous success, in terms of sales, market share and profits. He first established Trutone [a Polygram subsidiary], as a major force in the South African music scene, followed by 4 years as President of Polygram Brazil, taking the company to the number one spot, followed by another 4 years as President Polygram Records in Canada. I attribute his success, to his exceptional people skills in working with artists and his own staff, as well as his commitment to Team Work and Training.”

“During a sustained 5 year period, Tim as President of Bromor Foods, a Cadbury Schweppes subsidiary, with sales in excess of $100 million, achieved outstanding growth in sales, market share and profits. He achieved this by his skillful marketing of the many different brands under his care and the innovative introduction of new products. Above all it was probably Tim’s people skills that led to his having a truly committed and motivated team.”

“As an independent consultant specializing in the Insulating Concrete Form industry I have been in the unbiased position to observe the leadership performance of Tim Rooney during his time as CEO of AA Building Systems Inc [now Arxx Building products]. AAB is the industry leader in market share, profitability, rate of innovation and customer service and support. It has achieved this position despite being the most targeted company in the industry. But the proof of Rooney’s leadership is not limited to the macro measures of company performance. My regular interactions with AAB managers and employees in past work assignments and trade shows have repeatedly demonstrated that the organization holds a level of professionalism, rationality, morale and unity that is virtually unmatched in the industry.”
