Bringing a wealth of experience from his recent tenure as group president of RPM’s Performance Coatings Group (PCG), Dennsteadt has delivered consistent record-breaking sales and earnings while cultivating a global strategic vision.

Gregory Michael succeeded Dennsteadt as group president of the newly expanded Performance Coatings Group.
