Welcome to Episode #20 of Habitual Excellence, presented by Value Capture.
Our guest today is Patrick Anderson, the CEO of the Rural Alaska Community Action Program, Inc. (or “RurAL Cap”). Host Mark Graban asks about how the late Paul O'Neill‘s words and example influenced Patrick as a CEO when it comes to safety, leadership, and organizational transformation.
“I count Secretary O'Neill as one of those giants that inspired me early on and drove me to learn and to work a little bit harder.”
