Vince Saporito Senior Vice President of Differentiated Markets
Teams go from good to great when:
All team members are committed to understanding and implementing the same purpose and vision.
A great team shares collective accountability while meeting individual expectations and displaying mutual respect for one another through respectful communication that resolves conflict constructively vs attacking. Diversity and continuous feedback opportunities are also key.
The 'Check-6 Difference' lies in:
Our decades of experience living and operating within high-consequence environments.
Our teammates were taught how to minimize risk, adapt to change, and safeguard against human error, and now we successfully train others to do the same by being right here with them – from the shop floor to the front office, ensuring results and excellence are achieved.
Greatest lesson learned from consulting teams across the globe:
I’ve coached in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Canada, Argentina, and the U.S.
One thing I’ve learned is that maintaining effective communication despite language barriers and cultural nuances is key, especially when it comes to hierarchy. One has to be willing to do their homework before showing up, and even once on-site, be willing to display humility and ask for guidance from the host nation representative so they can show up that much better.
Vince Saportio, “Bluto”, serves as our Senior Vice President. His role maximizes Check-6’s operating performance on internal and external scales by building strong customer relationships and collaborating with other company executives to develop and set key performance and financial goals — along with the business strategies to profitably attain them.
As a Colorado Springs native, you can find ‘off-duty’ Bluto in the mountains chasing powder and skiing throughout winter, and road cycling, camping, or hiking during the summertime.
Words of Wisdom: When it comes to loved ones, time together is the most valuable thing you share with them. And when it comes to working, as you’re often juggling a lot of balls, the trick is to know which are glass and which are rubber – the rubber ones can be dropped when things are busy because they will bounce back later when your hands are free.
