Francis Hughes, Chairman of the Board of Directors, commented, “Since joining CPS in January 2021, and becoming president and CEO in July 2021, Michael McCormack has accomplished a great deal in a short period of time.

Chuck said, “We will truly miss Michael, not only for his leadership, but also for his sense of humor and his ability to relate to and motivate all CPS employees from the factory floor to the C-suite. More importantly, he has built a great team during his time here in every sense of the word. Not only do we enjoy working together, but we all have a mutual respect for the expertise that each brings to the table in his or her own area. Our current management team is fully committed to the growth of CPS, and we all expect 2023 to be another record year. We are confident that during the CEO search we will be able to continue our momentum as we look forward to a new CEO and the strategies that he or she will implement to further our growth even more.”
