In this episode 215, we visit with Howard Covington, Jr., author of Beyond the Bank: Hugh McColl’s Chapter Two, an in-depth look into the great legacy of Hugh McColl’s philanthropy after his retirement from Bank of America and some of the unique aspects of his character and philosophy that made him successful.
In his 80s, McColl remains a force for good in Charlotte, North Carolina, from his career at Bank of America to the capital he invests into his neighbors in order to better the community.
Paul Leonard, former CEO of Habitat for Humanity, had this to say about the book: “Hugh McColl has never stopped learning, listening, caring, investing, and sharing his remarkable resources and knowledge with people from all walks in life.”
Michael Marsicano, president and CEO of the Foundation For The Carolinas, says: “Nothing motivates Hugh McColl more than leading collaborations of strong voices to spark innovative solutions for the challenges of our time.”
