Why Tony
The experience behind the stories was earned the hard way.
A long working career and the leadership lessons that came with it. Family and faith. Cancer, and the ordinary business of getting up the next morning anyway.
Two books came out of it. He tells it plainly, with more humor than you'd expect.

Peter Cullen — LinkedIn Recommendation
“One of the greatest attributes that I appreciated from Tony was his selfless willingness to help others succeed. I knew that if I ever had a question or needed help, that I could seek Tony out and get his full attention. Tony was one of the few managers that regularly walked the floor actually asking people if they needed help. This willingness to help others, along with his seemingly endless knowledge of the industry made him a great resource.”
