A Window of Opportunity: How passion and determination grew a family business

by Reg Pollard

Whether you are a university business student or taking over the leadership of your family's business or you want to know the secret of a romance that has lasted over 55 years, Reg Pollard is someone you need to meet. Mr. Pollard's description of his professional and personal life will give you much to think about, much to learn and much to enjoy. His experience moving to Canada from England as a teenager in 1947 and starting up Pollard Windows with his parents is a wonderful story of how Yorkshire determination, passion and a genuine work ethic has helped grow an international company benefiting thousands of customers, suppliers, employees and communities. From his chapter on Lessons Learned to his description of two Leadership Transitions (from his father to him and then on to his own three children), Reg Pollard is a born storyteller from whom we all deserve to learn.
