www.negociosnow.com 40 March 2023 Age: 35 Title: Sales Manager Organization: CDW Alan Radevski looks to his past and uses it as motivation. He was born in Chicago and grew up in the Chicagoland area, but his mother was born and raised in Cuernavaca, Mexico. She and her four sisters grew up poor and without a father. Radevski's abuelita perse - vered and worked hard to pro- vide for her daughters. When they came to Chicago in the early 1980's, his mother used that perseverance she had learned and went to college at the University of Illinois Chi- cago where she earned a de- gree in chemical engineering. The road his mother took to get to where she is today moti- vates Radevski to succeed. His father was born in Bue- nos Aires, Argentina, after his grandfather immigrated to Ar- gentina from Macedonia. His grandfather's journey moti- vates Radevski to succeed. He was the first person in his fa- mily born in the United States. Radevski believes himself lucky to have worked for CDW for 11 years. The culture of di- versity at CDW has motivated him each day to be the best that he can be. He is currently a sales manager in the health- care academy segment and is a proud member of the Hispa- nic Organization for Leaders- hip and Achievement, a busi- ness resource group where he serves on the professional de- velopment committee and as Director of Hispanic Heritage Month. Radevski is a proud hus- band to Ashley and a proud father to Landon and Payton. Both motivate him to grow and get better every day. Provi- ding mentorship and guidan- ce to others in the Latino com- munity motivates him. He is a mentor for a local community organization, The Leadershop. While his past motivates him, his future inspires him. He is inspired to be the best husband and father he can be, to develop his community, to continue his leadership jour- ney at CDW, to leave an impact as his family has done for each other. Alan Radevski Creating a future rooted in the past WORDS OF WISDOM: "M otivated by the past, inspired by the future."
