BevForce Hot Shot Each month we check in with one BevForce Mover & Shaker to provide you with some behind-the-scenes insight on the job search process, the beverage industry's most innovative companies and the executives who drive them. This month, we chatted with Rick Scully, who was recently named U.S. Sales Director at Casa Dragones. TP: How would you defi ne Casa Dragones' culture and what attracted you to it? RS: Co-founders Bob Pittman and Bertha Gonzalez have a proven track record of building entrepreneurial, high-energy orga- nizations that challenge traditional route-to- market strategies. Casa Dragones embodies all of these elements, and once I tasted the extraordinary quality of the product, I knew this is where I wanted to be. TP: What advice would you give to job seekers looking for their next role? RS: In recent years, traditional job industry descriptions are looking for more diversifi ed skill sets. Be open to learning and growing. The industry is constantly evolving and so should you. TP: If you weren't sipping Casa Dragones, you would be drinking…. RS: The perfect Negroni.
