Thomas L. Welter

“I was blessed with the chance to have worked directly for Tom Welter. I had already been in the fitness business for quite sometime and had many bosses come and go and learned a great deal from each , whether that be things to adopt and do and/or things to never do as a manager to others I manage. I clearly remember the day I interviewed with Tom Welter. Being in the fitness business for so long you acquire some ability/gift to read people. When I met Tom, he had such a powerful presence. Tom is a true leader. It’s in him. He was born with the gift to lead people. He’s fair, he’s honest. He’s impactful and he gets results. He built a team that was number one in the company quarter-after-quarter. Tom brought a feeling of strength to our region and team. We felt on top of the world, we felt so inspired and unstoppable! It was such an incredible feeling. It was an honor being able to work for Tom. Tom is the type of leader that you would go beyond the distance for and really brings the best out of people! Tom was asked to take on another big role for the company and it was great to still have Tom as our leader, but selfishly, when Tom left to take on his next challenge, it felt like the soul and spirit left with him. I was and I am still very lucky to have been able to be apart of his team and actually experience the type of team and leadership that people wish for. Thank you Tom for all you have taught me. You are truly one-of-a-kind and I feel very blessed to have been able to work for you! ”

“I was very fortunate to have worked with Tom in the C-Suite for over two years, as we worked collaboratively on new and more effective strategies for the growth and improvement of a national franchise. Including the growth of same-store sales, franchisee support, franchisee lead gen, and franchise sales. I found Tom to be an extremely effective and adaptable leader, coach, and driver. His team had great respect for his intellect and knowledge, practical solutions to complex problems, his team-building abilities, and his growth-oriented communication and leadership. Despite a complex and rapidly changing environment, Tom was adaptable and quick on his feet to find the most appropriate solution and angle to the issue at hand. I would look forward to working with Tom again and recommend him as an adept, team-oriented, and results-driven leader. ”
