Thought Leadership Thursday: Spotlight on Terry Whited 🌟
This week, we’re proud to shine a light on Terry Whited, our Director of Contracts. A seasoned leader and USAF veteran, Terry expertly navigates complex procurement landscapes, oversees contract compliance, and supports mission-critical operations worldwide. Her deep knowledge of U.S. Federal Acquisition Regulations and strategic sourcing strengthens Spathe’s capabilities in both DoD and commercial contracting. For Terry, leadership is about more than just mastering a field—it’s about the genuine care she brings to her work every day. From the start, Terry’s dedication and skill set her apart, but what truly defines her is how deeply she cares. She cares for our team, our mission, our customers, and everyone impacted by the services we deliver.
Over the years, Terry’s leadership style has evolved with her vast experience across roles, industries, and through working with various leaders. Yet her commitment has never wavered: she’s always believed that if you truly care, people feel it. When she speaks, people listen—not just because she’s an expert, but because they know she’s invested in their success and the team’s mission.
Terry embodies the belief that leadership is about fostering growth and potential in others. She invests time in developing her team, knowing that this is the foundation of any successful organization.
"Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others." – Jack Welch
