TASK FORCE TIPS (TFT) has announced that Philip Gerace, former KME director of sales and marketing, has been named the company’s new vice president of marketing and will be based at the company’s worldwide headquarters in Valparaiso, Indiana. “This is one of those opportunities I couldn’t pass up, because TFT is a rare company that values its employees, takes great pride in the quality products it produces, and goes out of its way to serve those who serve,” Gerace explains.

“In the business world, you often come across those who say one thing and end up doing another as they grow. That isn’t true of TFT. This is a homegrown company that has maintained and built on the values it has had ever since the day the company started.” As with his earlier position at KME, Gerace sees himself first and foremost as a team member, “because if you’re part of the team, then you serve a critical role,” he explains. “A team can always develop more than an individual who is left by his or herself.”
