On April 25, 2024, Water Systems Consulting Inc. (WSC), received San Luis Obispo County Family-Friendly Workplace’s newest and highest level award.
WSC’s Director of Business Development and Marketing, Dianne Lee, and Southern California Design Practice Lead, Jon Ganz, PE, join the internal team responsible for leading the short and long-term strategic goals at WSC.
In addition being members of our leadership team, those who earn the promotion of Vice President are empowered by our Board of Directors to lead the day-to-day management and operations of the company. They are accountable for effective decision-making in the best interests of WSC and responsible for company performance, risk management, investments, growth and development, and staff well-being.
Get to know our two new vice presidents:
Dianne Lee, Director of Business Development and Marketing
Dianne brings more than 25 years of experience in marketing and business development in the water industry.
A strategic and creative thinker, Dianne applies innovative approaches and fresh perspectives to communicate valuable engineering solutions to WSC’s clients.
Each day at WSC, we trust Dianne to lead teams that accomplish operational, business development, and marketing goals. With an easygoing and forthright approach, she delivers impactful results for our various project proposals.
“Dianne’s extensive industry experience coupled with her creativity, incredible work ethic, and commitment to her team make her an indispensable leader,” WSC CEO and Founder Jeff Szytel said. “She is a rare leader that brings vision and insight but also compassion and tremendous productive capacity; with Dianne’s leadership, WSC continues its tradition of industry-leading business development and marketing to drive and sustain our growth.”
When she isn’t busy at WSC, Dianne loves swimming, reading, and happily preparing to be a new grandmother this fall.
Jon Ganz, PE, BCEE, PMP, Design Practice Lead
Jon has more than 25 years of experience in the design, construction, rehabilitation and operation of wastewater and water treatment and conveyance facilities.
He excels in leading multidisciplinary design teams that help clients achieve their goals. In his leadership role, Jon is excited to do all he can to nurture the team’s success.
“Being a vice president means helping WSC grow, looking at the future, and assessing strategies for success; I love being a part of that,” Jon said. “It means being trusted to be in a position to mentor our engineering staff, guide them, and set them up for success.”
Jon’s passion for excellent service is what is driving the growth of WSC’s Infrastructure Design offering.
“Great service is about the little things,” Jon said. “It’s about developing trust by delivering when you say you will and communicating when something doesn’t go to plan.”
The design is what you hang your hat on, but what I value more is the process of getting there — listening to our clients and providing expert guidance so they can make the best decisions for their communities,” Jon added.
WSC’s CEO and Founder, Jeff Szytel, said Jon’s dedication to our clients sets him apart in the industry.
“Jon is a conscientious and committed leader of people; he brings diverse and highly-respected technical capabilities, making him perfectly suited and highly sought-after to lead multidisciplinary teams that solve our clients’ most challenging problems,” Jeff said. “As Vice President, Jon will play a key role in leading our teams and projects in Southern California while contributing to our companywide body of knowledge and experience, especially in the areas of wastewater treatment and water resource recovery.”
Outside of work, Jon enjoys designing and building sets for youth theater programs alongside his wife, who directs, and two kids, who are actively involved in musical theater.
