In episode 389, Steve Swinney, CEO of Kodiak Building Partners, joins the show. Steve and Bradley discuss how Kodiak integrates new companies following an acquisition, how to develop trust with authenticity, intention, and speed—and how Steve would improve the long-standing culture of mediocrity within the greatest NFL franchise of all-time, the Chicago Bears.   

As CEO of Kodiak Building Partners, Steve is responsible for the overall vision, strategy, and execution of Kodiak’s business plan. Steve brings over 25 years of acquisitions and private equity-backed venture expertise to the founding and operations of Kodiak.

 

Before the founding of Kodiak, Steve was a VP with ProBuild Holdings, where he created the organization to support the company’s mergers and acquisitions, financial analysis, investor relations, budgeting, and long-range planning functions. Before entering the building materials industry with ProBuild, Steve worked at First Data/Western Union as the Director of Finance.

Steve is a CPA and earned his undergraduate degree in Accounting at Abilene Christian University and his MBA in Finance from the University of Texas at Austin.
