Steve Snower on the Inspire Greatness Podcast

In this episode of the Inspire Greatness Podcast, I had the opportunity to chat with Steve Snower, CEO of Parts Town Unlimited. 

Steve has been with the company since its early days, starting as the sixth employee 20 years ago. 

Under his leadership, Parts Town has experienced significant growth, now employing over 5,000 individuals. The company has sustained its place on the Inc. 5000 List for 15 consecutive years and has been recognized as a Top Workplace by the Chicago Tribune for four years. 

Steve emphasizes the importance of deep partnerships and innovation in driving the company’s success. He has also established six Core Values for Parts Town: Safety, Integrity, Innovation, Passion, Courage, and Community, which reflect the organization’s commitment to excellence and ethical practices.

During our conversation, Steve discussed his three proven methods for inspiring greatness in team members:

1. Clearly communicating the vision, core values, and value proposition to all team members
2. Genuinely caring for the team while challenging them directly to maximize their potential
3. Setting clear goals that are ambitious yet achievable

Tune in to be inspired by Steve’s wisdom and passion!
