The Role Of Faith In Leading Businesses Today

by Dirk Beveridge, Kip Miller, John Hanna, Brian Tuohey

About this episode:

In today’s episode, Dirk talks with Kip Miller, President and CEO of Eastern Industrial Supplies, Brian Tuohey, CEO of The Collins Company and John Hanna, President and COO of Fromm Electric.

My guests today talk of their faith in business and leadership.  The conversation is light and funny at times and quiet, soulful, and deep at others. This is probably the least comfortable I have ever been in a business conversation.  As I say to our guests, the strength of their faith and reliance on God is foreign to me.  But I wanted to understand, to explore if I am missing something … or more precisely to look for what I am missing.

Among the topics explored by Dirk, Kip, John, & Brian:

  • Gods role in leadership and business
  • What it means when a leader believes God is his pilot
  • We learn of several faith-based organizations business leaders rely on to support their people
