Join Jackie Mattox, founder and CEO of Women in Electronics, she sits down for an exclusive one-on-one interview with Mike Morton, CEO of TTI, Inc. in the latest “Leader in Highlight” podcast episode. Mike starts off with how he moved from a procurement role in the hardware business into the electronics industry after meeting Paul Andrews, Founder of TTI. He shares memories of Paul and his continued legacy throughout the company – from his compassionate, easy-going nature to his philosophy on doing business and his drive to be better in all the things he did. Mike continues with the story of how Paul was introduced to Warren Buffet, leading TTI to eventually becoming a Berkshire Hathaway company.  The conversation then shifts to Mike’s tenure with TTI and the skills developed along the way that enabled him to thrive in the role of CEO today. His best advice is that there is a difference between learning and being taught – don’t wait for anybody, go out and learn! He attributes his success to experiencing the broad range of functions within the company. The diversity and learning all aspects of the business positioned him well to ultimately have responsibility for the business. He shares his outlook on growth for not only the future of TTI, but the distribution channel in general, as well as the broader electronics industry. Looking back on his career, Mike shares what he’s been most proud of, what he would or wouldn’t want to change about his career path, what brings him joy outside of work, and the value that the TTI Family of Specialists find as a founding sponsor of the Women in Electronics organization. Tune in to discover more insights from Mike!Support the show
