This morning we met with Scott Fox and his team at Fox Electric and The B and J. Fox Electric is a 3rd generation business which was stated in 1967 by Scott’s grandpa, it was then purchased by his dad, and Scott took over in 2007. Students were able to able to take a turn at riding in the scissor lift, learned about electrical testing, and practiced conduit bending. It was great seeing how the job works! Scott also gave us a tour behind the scenes at The B and J which he purchased in 2014 with his father. This business has been around since about 1961 and has continued to grow over the years!
He left the student with some advice:
1. Surround yourself with good people and give them the authority to do their jobs.
2. Be good at what you do and let others do what they are good at as well.
3. Be on time. Understand the impact of being late because this has a great impact on your coworkers and customers.
Scott is a great resource to our program and always takes the time to hear our students insights. Thank you for your investment in the CEO Program and sharing about your businesses this morning! Austin Public Schools Pacelli Catholic Schools B&J Bar and Grill
