Tecklenburg Named Women in Auto Care President

tammy_womeninautocareTammy (Chaffee) Tecklenburg has been named the new president of Women in Auto Care.

“I am so thrilled to pass the baton to Tammy,” said Amy Mattinat, outgoing president, Women in Auto Care. “I am confident Tammy will guide us to an unprecedented level and inspire us to reach for excellence in all that we do.”

Tecklenburg, who is vice president of global sales and marketing operations at Spectrum Brands – Global Auto Care, previously served as the group’s member development committee chair and will spend a three-year term as president overseeing the leadership conferences and growth of the newly-rebranded group. While part of Women in Auto Care, she created and managed the group’s mentor program and was the recipient of the 2015 Auto Care Woman of the Year award.

“I joined Women in Auto Care eight years ago to network and expand my outreach,” said Tecklenburg. “I raised my hand at every opportunity to take this organization to the next level. When I started in the aftermarket 20 years ago, there were no women in senior leadership positions at my company as role models. It hit me one day as I was cruising through my career that it was my responsibility to step up and support the next generation of leading ladies by being the person I needed when I was younger.”
