A sales tip-what has made you so successful here at OTR?How long have you with OTR and when did you become a TL?Getting to know youTHOMAS FLOWERSWhat’s made the difference for me is showing up every day hungry—beingteachable, learning from our top agents, asking questions (sometimesannoyingly), and applying feedback. That, combined with consistent habitsand a positive outlook, has helped me build momentum and hit keymilestones along the way.I’ve been with Optima since June of 2020 and became a Team Lead in 2021.How do you foster a positive and productive team environment?I’ve had great TLs who’ve shown me the value of building and maintaining a team vibethat’s both fun and collaborative. We keep it light, support each other, and stay focused onhitting our goalsWhat motivates you? I love seeing potential realized in those around me, especially inthe least likely candidates to succeed. I'm a big fan of underdogs.What do you enjoy outside of work?I’m all about spending quality time with my family and friends—traveling, training jiu jitsu, band stuff, and nervouslywatching 49ers games.
