About this listen

What actually drives performance inside a company? It comes down to how well people show up for each other.

In this episode of the Chairwaves podcast, Philadelphia, PA Vistage Chair Chris Donnelly breaks down the kind of leadership that doesn’t show up in the numbers. Drawing from his military background, Chris explains why real camaraderie, relying on the people around you to step up and deliver, has become the lens he uses to evaluate businesses and leadership teams. His path from the Navy to investment banking to leading and exiting his family’s plumbing business shaped how he leads and makes decisions.

Chris also reflects on stepping into leadership during personal loss, building a company that could run without him, and why pushing people, not protecting them, is what makes a Vistage group valuable.

The best way to connect with Chris is on LinkedIn. His contact info is there, and he welcomes texts.
