(Milton. Ontario) - TRAFFIX has hired Scott Goodman to fill a new role in the company, Chief People Officer (CPO). Mr. Goodman will be responsible for maintaining employee satisfaction during explosive corporate expansion.

 

"We are thrilled to have Scott Goodman join our rapidly growing company. Scott's depth of experience and proven track record align perfectly with TRAFFIX' vision for growth. Having Scott as our CPO will ensure we continue to develop our exceptional team members who create our culture of High-Performance allowing for continued success”, says Duane Coghlan, Managing Partner.

"I'm very excited to continue TRAFFIX' tradition of prioritizing the human element in a field where it adds so much customer value”, says Scott Goodman. "Other companies chose to develop technology solutions rather than their people. TRAFFIX is doing the opposite. Here we develop technology to support the people we invest in. This approach makes the company attractive to the industry talent we look forward to bringing onboard.”
