Okay, imagine this… Your alarm goes off at 1 a.m.  In an hour, it’s your job to be on the back of a trash pickup truck.  Oh, and by the way? You’re one of the top leaders of the company. Believe it or not, that’s exactly what today’s guest did … every week, for seven and a half years! Jim Fish, the CEO of Waste Management, is just that kind of leader – one who spends time on the front lines to be with his team and truly listen to them.  Jim is connected to the people he leads, and he’s focused on putting them first when he makes decisions.
