<![CDATA[More from off-the-grid: what a printing company in Montana can tell us about leadership]]>Christian Long was one of the people who came on the tour of Printing for Less. He wrote up his thoughts (with a slant about it teaching him a lot about school design — Christian runs a company that explores that topic, so you can understand his filter there). I too came away with the same impression. This is — by far — the most impressive business I’ve been in. Not because it makes a ton of money (it only has $24 million in sales) but because of the approach it takes. I’ve spoken to executives at many of the world’s best or most respected companies like Target, Boeing, Nestle, Google, Amazon, Sun Microsystems, and fell in love with this little company. I hope to help make Podtech even 1/100th as fun a place. Also because it is being built in the absolute middle of nowhere without ANY geek infrastructure around it.
Andrew Field is my business hero.
Awesome post Christian. Thanks for putting to words thoughts that have been rattling around in my head ever since that tour.
Oh, and I love their dog policy. At the end it simply says “no cats.”
