MEET MIKE
DRIVEN BY A COMMITMENT TO PEOPLE
Mike Roach, the President of Western Partitions, Inc. (WPI), was the heart of the Company when it was founded in 1972 and the character of the Company he instilled is alive and well today. After Mike and his wife Pam started WPI in the Portland area, word spread quickly about the Company's high-quality work. WPI quickly grew and now has four locations and over 600 employees. A lot has changed in over 30 years but, what has not changed is Mike's family-based values and commitment to hard work.
Mike is known for his positive outlook, reputation as a "half-full cup" kind of guy, and for calling every employee by name. He instills a sense of fairness in all of his dealings and his experience with union negotiations has solidified his position as a consensus builder with the WPI Team and union partners.
Above all, Mike is driven by a commitment to people, both within and outside the Company. He counts on his wife Pam, daughter Angela, and son Victor, to help manage and drive WPI. Angela heads up the management of the administrative staff while Victor heads up the estimating staff. At the same time, Mike understands and appreciates the fact that WPI's success is based on the efforts of all its office and field personnel. As Mike looks to the future growth of the Company, he counts his wife, children, four grandchildren, and rest of the WPI Team as the essential keys to that success.
