    Ignoring Noise & Following What’s Right for Your Business with Kelley Stacy

    Ever found yourself wondering if leaders should stick to the norm or do what's best for their own company? It's like wading through a jungle of "best practices" for leadership – a real head-scratcher. Especially when we're all bombarded with advice on how to be a top-notch leader, figuring out what clicks with you can be a real puzzle. And, let's be real, in times like the crazy rollercoaster of the pandemic, it's not about doing what everyone else says; it's about doing what actually works for your unique business (and the people who make it up). Kelley Stacy, President and CEO of SMC Corporation of America, embodies this mindset completely.  She joins host Joe Mills on this episode of the 1,000 Stories podcast to talk about the unrelenting work ethic behind her 29-year career.
