Holiday Episode - How The Hole In The Wall Gang Leads With Grace.

Boardrooms' Best

Host: Nancy May, President and CEO, BoardBench Companies

Guest: Ray Lamontagne, Chairman of the Board, The Hole In The Wall Gang Fund, Inc.

Leading, from the start of an idea through to building an international phenomenon, takes vision, persistence, and some keen skills. When it’s a not-for-profit vision, building from the ground up, with volunteers, is far more challenging, and takes greater strength and talent.

The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp was the vision of Paul Newman, who, with the adept leadership of Ray Lamontagne, was able to create and expand it into a great success. Working with such a celebrity has its advantages, yet there were still bumps along the road, and never any guarantees of success.

Ray Lamontagne, Chairman of the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp and I discuss, the ups, downs, head spinning successes, and visions for what’s to come for this world-famous mission-driven organization. He and the entire staff have done much to touch the lives of ill children and their families.
