Winsupply on Tuesday named the director of member programs at the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors as the company’s new director of training.
The Ohio construction and industrial supply distributor said that CP Ryan would “lead and shape the future of training programs” for more than 9,000 employees at both its directly owned service companies and its majority-owned “local companies.”
Ryan had led executive education and training programs at the NAW since 2022.
“We have an opportunity to elevate how we support our local companies: expanding beyond job-specific training to deliver best practices, leadership development and soft skills that truly help our local companies thrive,” Kamna Gupta, the vice president of Winsupply’s support services group, said in a statement. “At the same time, we are equally committed to creating innovative, impactful and future-ready training programs within the service companies.”
“The opportunity to utilize training to help support individuals on their journey of owning and operating their own business is incredibly unique,” Ryan said. “Training should be continuous and energizing, evolving with each business to meet changing demands.”
