    All In for 53 Years: George Pattee (Parksite) on Building Companies That Last
    2025/08/26
    What does it take to build a company and a culture that lasts? In this episode of Through the Rearview, Lindsay Young sits down with George Pattee, who turned a teenage summer job at Parksite into a 53-year leadership journey. From working out of a literal (former) chicken coop to becoming chairman of the employee-owned, thriving building materials distributor, George shares stories of resilience, purpose and people-first leadership. You’ll hear: • How culture – not just having an ESOP – carried Parksite through disruption • How teamwork, accountability and the golden rule shaped his leadership. • Insights into succession planning, the realities of ESOPs and advice for the next generation of leaders. • Personal reflections on building both a 50+ year marriage and a 50+ year career. George also talks about giving back to the industry; he served a term as chairman of the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW) Board of Directors. Tune in for stories, humor and timeless wisdom from one of distribution’s most respected voices.
