MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., December 17, 2020—Global Tax Network (GTN) today announced Steve Daas, Partner, Global Client Experience, will be retiring from GTN on December 31, 2020.

Steve joined the firm in October 2005 and began serving as GTN’s Chief Operating Officer in 2008. On January 1, 2018, Steve’s role and title transitioned to Partner, Global Client Experience where he increased his focus and commitment to the firm’s promise of being the trusted partner and resource for GTN’s clients.

“I am so grateful to have spent the past 15 years with GTN,” stated Steve Daas. “It has been a great pleasure watching the company grow and to see what can be accomplished by a group of dedicated individuals, and I know the future of the company is bright. GTN has become more than a place of work, it is the team I have been energized and privileged to work with for all these years. I have many fond memories of our annual conferences and look forward to making new memories at future conferences.”

Since joining GTN 15 years ago, Steve has pushed himself and those around him to drive and deliver consistent, quality services to clients worldwide. He has focused on helping all GTN teams support and grow current clients through continued enhancement of the global client experience. Clients often relied on Steve for his ability to translate complicated tax language into meaningful advice, his capacity to see both sides of an issue and develop equitable solutions, and his skill for staying calm, regardless of the situation.

“Steve’s contributions to GTN have been significant and meaningful since the very beginning. Not only has he ensured a positive and enjoyable experience for our clients, but he has led the charge in ensuring the GTN culture pushes to do the same,“ stated David Kolb, President of GTN. “Steve embodies all five of GTN’s Core Values, but none more than “be passionate.” He has a passion not only for GTN’s success, but also for our clients and team to succeed as well. It has been an honor to work alongside Steve for the past 15 years, and I am excited to see what retirement brings for him.”

In his retirement, Steve is looking forward to many trips in the RV, taking up golf again, and spending time with family and friends. He will also continue his commitment to education, animal rescue, and veterans through volunteer efforts and financial support including some substitute teaching between RV trips.
