The Third Generation
The founders were the first generation of HOK leaders. Jerry Sincoff was the second generation leader, followed by Bill Valentine for a brief time. The author considers himself a third generation leader, although the passage of time has a way of compressing the years. This chapter explains that one of the benefits of having multiple branches is that recruiting is easier because you can give people a choice of locations, rather than forcing them to move. Happy employees are better employees. The chapter discusses the changes that took place at HOK, Bill Valentine's retirement, changes in the human resources, and the changes in the financial team, among others. It advises that one needs to embrace multiple generations at the firm; look for talent inside the firm first before recruiting people from outside; and create a virtual firm, rather than having a central headquarters, and use technology to glue people together.
