General Motors held its annual GM Dealer Of The Year award ceremony in
New York City on March 7, 2008 to present the Jack Smith Leadership
Award to its top 115 dealers. Bob Serpentini, president of the
Serpentini Chevrolet Auto Group was one chosen from more than 6,700 GM
dealers across the U.S.
Those selected exemplify the company's dedication to exceptional sales
performance and superior customer service. The Jack Smith Leadership
Award, a Steuban crystal obelisk, represents excellence and high
achievement.
"GM Dealer Of The Year winners deliver consistently great sales and
customer service, and play an active role in the communities they
serve," said Rick Wagoner, GM Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
"These elite dealers are the face of GM to thousands of our customers
across the country, and we congratulate them for representing GM's best
in this, our centennial year."
"It is important to recognize that this exceptional group of General
Motors' dealers consistently shows strong sales performance and
exceptional customer service. They represent the finest aspects of
American business and creativity, and serve as an example to all of us,"
said Mark LaNeve, vice president of vehicle sales, service and
marketing, GM North America.
This is Serpentini Chevrolet's third year receiving the Jack Smith Leadership Award.
"We couldn't be more proud," said Bob Serpentini. "The employees at
all Serpentini dealerships take pride in ensuring customer satisfaction
through service and sales." "I would like to give a special thanks to
Jeanine Hein and the rest of her team who are really responsible for us
winning this great award."
