23. Andy Dietrich: How to work together to get more done

Here at the world headquarters of Johnson City Living we’re charging forward with our episodes. I know you’re not spending as much time in the car, but I want you to have new stuff at your fingertips for that extra walk around the neighborhood or yard project you’re working on.

Today’s guest is Andy Dietrich. Andy is one of the owners of Champion Chevrolet Cadillac on the Bristol Highway in Johnson City. In the episode, Andy talks about how he got started in the car business as a kid picking up cigarette butts in the parking lot, to working as a mechanic’s helper, and then as a salesman during his summer breaks in college.

In recent years, Andy and a handful of other business leaders in the area have taken on the idea that as a region, we’re stronger working together than as individual cities. If the spread of coronavirus and out attempts to stay safe have taught us anything, it’s that we’re more connected than we realize and we’ve got to take care of each other. I think Andy’s message really resonates during a time like this.
