Episode 25: Altafiber CEO Leigh Fox on HQ overhaul, what he's learned from 30 years of playing guitar
Manage episode 360166050 series 3404352
Hosts Andy and Tom talk about how a local restaurateur built a $90 million company after closing five venues in Columbus, a hidden portrait found while X-raying a historic painting, the $9 million overhaul of Blue Ash's living room, the revitalization of the historic Emery Theater in OTR and Cincinnati's historic showing at the James Beard awards.
Interview starts at (17:32). Leigh Fox was drawn to science, so he got a degree in geology. It was working in the field, specifically seeing just how much Duck Tape his company was using and wondering who was getting paid for all of that, which caused him to shift his focus to business. He talks about the overhaul of Altafiber's downtown headquarters, consolidating for seven floors into two; how he managed the shift from Cincinnati Bell to Altafiber; and how 30 years of playing guitar keeps him grounded and humbled.
