PHOENIX—Intelligent networking power solutions provider LifeSafety Power has promoted longtime team member Keith Kober to senior director of sales.
Most recently director of sales for the western U.S. and Canada, Kober has been with LifeSafety Power for more than 11 years. He started his stint with LifeSafety Power as regional sales director, where he brought more than 30 years of selling, designing and implementing security management solutions to the company.
