The National Association
of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW)

Caliper is pleased to announce our new partnership with NAW—The National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors.

 NAW

Who is NAW?

The NAW encompasses over 100 national line-of-trade associations and works to advocate its members’ interests on national public policy issues that affect the entire wholesale distribution industry.

NAW provides benchmarking, strategic management information, networking, and high-level conferences to its members, as well as and sponsors industry-wide service and product offerings that benefit wholesaler-distributors.

And now, they are partnering with Caliper to offer a wider range of personnel services to NAW members.

What NAW’s President is Saying

Dirk Van Dongen, President of NAW, shares, “This partnership couldn’t come at a better time for NAW members. Because of the current business climate, many companies have cut back on hiring and some have even faced reductions in workforce. Yet, they are still expected to meet the needs of customers but with fewer people onboard. To do this effectively requires managing people for maximum effectiveness—in fact, it becomes essential. Caliper’s success in helping companies select and develop top performers and build winning teams has been reported in many leading publications like the Harvard Business Review and the Wall Street Journal. Their sterling reputation is what sets them apart.”

Caliper is able to offer NAW members:

  • Pre-Employment Personality Assessments
  • Team Building
  • 360 Evaluations
  • Succession Planning
  • First-Time Managers Program

“By creating a direct connection between us and NAW, we can work with NAW members to help them manage their people more effectively,” explains Caliper President Patrick Sweeney.

And, Herb Greenberg, Founder & CEO of Caliper concludes, “During these challenging economic times, companies need to make sure they have the right people in the right positions if they want to survive. We work with everyone from Fortune 500 companies to start-ups and everything in between. Our services are for all companies no matter how big or small they may be.”
