About Skip

In October, 2001, just weeks after completing a 20-year career in Minor League Professional Baseball management, Skip launched Weisman Success Resources to help small to medium sized companies improve their approach to their businesses.

But, from the age of seven Skip’s primary focus in life was the game of baseball. After 34-years of playing the game, being a student of its history and impact on society and building successful business models for the five Minor League Baseball franchises for which he was fortunate enough to serve in a leadership role, Skip realized his knowledge, skills, talents were transferrable to a different industry.

Today, Skip’s passion is to work with other business leaders to set a high standard of expectation so that they can create their own Champion Organization. He has worked in a variety of industries including insurance and financial services, home services (plumbing and heating), construction management, real estate, mortgage, banking and non-profits (click here for a client list and testimonials).

In January of 1986, on the day of the Space Shuttle Challenger tragedy, Skip, at age 26, was named General Manager of the

Greensboro Hornets Baseball team to become the youngest GM in the game at the time. “It was certainly a bittersweet day. It was very difficult to appreciate my accomplishment for some time, as my attention, along with everyone’s, was focused on the loss of some great, adventurous American astronauts that day.”

Twice during his career Skip’s franchises were recognized as “Organization of the Year.” In 1987 “The Sporting News” awarded Skip (in just his second year as Vice President & General Manager)

and his club, The Greensboro Hornets their annual honor. Eleven years later, in 1998, “Baseball America” recognized Skip’s Hudson Valley Renegades with its “Organization of the Year” Award.

During his 20-year career Skip served as President and/or General Manager for the Greensboro Hornets (N.C.), the Columbia (S.C.) Mets, the Williamsport (Pa.) Bills, and the Erie (Pa.) Sailors before fulfilling the dream of every baseball operator when he moved with the Erie franchise to the Hudson Valley region of New York to build a successful franchise from the ground up in 1994.

"Before working with Skip our team was stuck in one mindset. There was a culture of complacency and disrespect. Now everyone expects more from themselves and each other, they definitely communicate better and are moving forward."
