Concordance Bids Farewell to Long-Time Leader

It’s the time of year that people pause in their hectic lives to reflect upon what they are most grateful for, what has changed their lives in the past 12 months and what they hold closest to their hearts. This year, Concordance is doing the same. How can a COMPANY reflect and acknowledge things like this? Simple. Our company is our people, as we’ve said again and again; and this year we would like to acknowledge one of the people that made Concordance possible. A person that has spent almost 29 years of his life changing the healthcare distribution industry for the better. He is a person that many of us hold near and dear to our hearts. As he prepares to retire on December 31st of this year, we want him to know how very thankful we are for all he has done to build our company, our work family and the endless book of stories about his shenanigans.

Roger Benz, current co-CEO of Concordance, is truly one-of-a-kind. Those of you that know him, know that he is full of knowledge, full of fun and possibly one of the humblest CEOs on the planet. What you may not know is the journey that he took to build Concordance and secure the bright future that we face.

During our annual spring meeting, Lisa Hohman, Chief Strategy Officer and future CEO of Concordance, addressed the audience with a tribute to Roger, stating, “It is vitally important that in order to truly understand our future, we must understand the past. This crazy adventure we now call Concordance, would not be possible without Roger; without his investment, without his entrepreneurial spirit, without his vision and commitment to ‘rolling the dice.’ Without Roger’s leadership, we would simply not be here.”
