Alair Homes Charlotte, North Carolina
As COO of Alair Homes North America, Duane oversees operations, implements strategic plans that align with the company’s vision, and ensures the entire organization is communicating and functioning at a high level. He works closely with the executive team and department leaders on research and development and systems optimization. Duane joined Alair in 2016 as a Builder/Partner and became a Regional Partner in 2017. He was very instrumental in incorporating EOS into the Alair culture. Duane entered the construction industry over 30 years ago working on oceanfront estates in The Hamptons on Long Island, New York. In 1996 he moved to Charlotte, North Carolina and started a general contracting business. As a builder, remodeler, coach, consultant, and COO, he is dedicated to elevating professionalism in the construction industry by promoting continuous learning, strategic planning, collaboration with like minded peers and the elimination of egos. He believes that if you fail to do these things the industry will reduce you to a commodity and leave you alone on an island. When he is not talking shop you will most likely find him outdoors. He and his family love to travel, hike, explore, and discover new places and new things.
