Aaron Gaynor Owner and CEO, Eco Plumbers, Electricians, and HVAC Technicians; GetEco.com ""Chad Peterman has earned the nickname 'Perfect Chad' for a reason. The challenges of making partnerships work, particularly when succeeding one's own father in a family business, are expansive. I attribute his humility, kindness, and capacity for learning and application as key factors in his achievements. Together with his brother, they have propelled the Peterman brand to new heights, without sacrificing the culture, morals, or quality that define their family's business. I wholeheartedly endorse this book for anyone who may find themselves navigating similar circumstances. For those who inherit their family's business, Chad's insights offer invalu- able guidance on the path to excellence. And for fathers approaching retirement, Chad's father's perspective challenges conventional thinking and is a testament to embracing the transition of leadership.""
