About Us
The experience level of the employees at Listerman and Associates is truly meaningful. Together, the four of us are approaching 100 years of aggregate employee experience delivering quality Horticultural solutions.
Our Team
David Listerman
Co-Owner
David graduated from the University of Kentucky with a BS in Ornamental Horticulture. He’s also a Certified Arborist. Out of school, he began working at a nursery – first as the manager of the wholesale center, followed by 15 years in sales covering what ultimately grew into an eight-state territory.
It was during this period when David established his strong relationships with an unprecedented number of nurseries, landscape architects, contractors and arborists. This is this experience that allowed him to form his unique and highly successful perspective on the industry.
Bridget Sheridan
Majority Owner
Bridget founded Listerman & Associates in 1998 and is the majority stockholder. She began by managing the company’s financial and administrative functions, working closely with bankers, accounting firms, and health care providers.
Her roles within the company have continued to expand, and she is now the CEO, directing the company’s overall strategy and operational focus. Her leadership brings to the business an ever-present sense of fairness and accountability.
Steffen Listerman
Treasurer
After college, Steffen entered the family business, taking on a range of important tasks. His successful management of several initiatives, quickly led to greater responsibilities within the Company.
As Sales Associate, he supported the sales manager in order entry and product procurement. He introduced the principles of Enterprise Resource Planning, matching resources to the flow of business.
As Sales Manager, he imparted his influence in the area of Relationship Management. This resulted in faster, more accurate transactions, enhancing many of our most important partnerships.
As Partner, Steffen re-thought and re-tooled the Company’s workflows and onboarding processes. He also began his repositioning of the business for greater Geographic and Fiscal Growth.
Today, Steffen is a certified Project Management Professional (PMP®), seeking new challenges.
