    BETHESDA, Md. (Oct. 15, 2015) — The Car Care Council Women's Board (WB) has named Tammy (Chaffee) Tecklenburg, vice president of global sales and marketing operations for Spectrum Brands — Global Auto Care, the 2015 recipient of its Auto Care Woman of the Year award.

    She will receive the award at the annual WB reception at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 3, at the Sands Expo Center, room 310, during the upcoming Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) in Las Vegas.

    The award is presented annually “to honor a remarkable individual in recognition of her significant leadership and contributions to the auto care community throughout her career,” the WB said, noting that these contributions “may be cultural, educational, social, economic, political, business or any other areas that impact the lives of people in our industry and community.”

    Amy Mattinat, president of the WB, said Ms. Tecklenburg “truly embodies the spirit of the Woman of the Year award. “Tammy pitched the idea of starting a mentor program and volunteered to take it on, over and above her professional responsibilities.

    “Her committee and the executive board have supported her in creating a fabulous program, one that has quickly become one of the highly-valued benefits of being a Women's Board associate. This award is truly a well-deserved tribute to her dedication to the Women's Board and the advancement of women within the auto care industry.”

    Kathleen Schmatz, president and CEO of the Auto Care Association, said the ACA also “congratulates Tammy for the well-earned recognition from the Women's Board. This award echoes her many contributions and dedication, recognizes her skills and indicates continued excellence in standards from professionals in auto care and the importance of sharing knowledge with the younger generations. We are pleased that the WB has seen fit to give this award to Tammy, and we look forward to further contributions.”

    Guy Andrysick, senior vice president and general manager for Spectrum Brands who has worked with Ms. Tecklenburg for 20 years, called her “one of those rare people who you feel truly lucky to have in your life, not just your business.

    “I cannot begin to try to list the numerous, impressive accomplishments that she has made to Prestone Products/Honeywell, Armored AutoGroup, and now Spectrum Brands. She accomplishes ridiculous goals under unrealistic time frames by creating inclusive environments that allow people to win together. She does all of this consistently and repeatedly, making it appear normal and effortless.”

    The WB said Ms. Tecklenburg has been active in the automotive industry for 20 years and has held numerous leadership positions with increasing responsibility with companies Prestone Products/Honeywell and Armored AutoGroup, which was recently acquired by Spectrum Brands Holdings. She has led teams across finance, sales and marketing for the brands Prestone, Fram, Autolite, Bendix, Holt Lloyd, Armor All, STP, Tuff Stuff and A/C Pro. Most recently, according to the board, she was an “integral part of the team who built Armored AutoGroup and after the sale to Spectrum Brands last May, is playing a lead role in the integration and development of Spectrum Brands' Global Auto Care division.”

    Ms. Tecklenburg has been involved with the WB for seven years and, since last year, has sat on its executive board and is the committee chair for career and leadership development.

    In 2014 she led the WB's launch of the industry's first female mentor program. “In a brief period of time, this program has influenced many women, resulted in promotions and is filling the void of traditional development programs within the auto care industry,” the WB said.
