Staying Focused
Engle says the company’s overall goal is obviously to expand
and she believes that’s the direction the company is moving

about sticking to its roots and improving its legacy rather than trying to focus all its energy on creating something entirely different,

“There’s a heartbeat here that is a heartbeat of RIDGID,”
describes Engle. “I can feel that heartbeat when I walk around
these halls. This is a company that truly believes in their
products.”
