German ski pole manufacturer Leki has announced a significant change in leadership at its subsidiary Leki USA. Greg Wozer is stepping down as President after 34 years, and Chris O’Donoghue will assume the position of General Manager effective immediately.
During his tenure, Wozer played a critical role in shaping the Leki USA organization and solidifying the brand’s position in the marketplace. Leki USA has achieved notable milestones, including doubling sales from 2016 to 2023. Wozer will remain an integral part of the Leki family as a Senior Advisor, where he will continue to use his wealth of experience to support the strategic direction of the company.
Wozer’s successor, O’Donoghue, has been an invaluable member of the Leki USA team as Director of Sales since December 2022. He brings extensive industry experience and a proven track record of leadership to his new role, having previously held positions as Sales Manager for Johnson Outdoors, Kulkea, Uvex and Atomic, as well as Product Manager for Nordica.
