Leadership lessons from a former Krispy Kreme CEO


By Bob Holmes

Anne Marie Green was so excited about what she was hearing at the Columbia International University Leadership Luncheon that she tweeted it out right away: “Culture is the platform for strategy and vision.”

Green, a member of a local school board, joined nearly 80 other business and community leaders in downtown Columbia for lunch, and to hear former Krispy Kreme CEO James Morgan discuss how creating a culture of humility in the workplace leads to success.

Morgan, 71, drew from his 40 years of business experience in discussing the attributes, qualities and characteristics of a good leader, as well as the lessons he learned from his time at Krispy Kreme. And of course, there were doughnuts for dessert.
