Tom Murphy, Owner of Outdoor Odysseys (Interview 40/100)
About this episode
Episode 40 is an interview with Tom Murphy, Owner of Outdoor Odysseys, a sea kayaking tour company based in Friday Harbor, Washington. This is the second episode in a 2-part series that includes the perspective of a small business owner and a direct report. It’s a unique perspective that goes beyond just these two leaders. It’s also, in part, and unexpected ode to the company’s founder, Clark Casebolt, whose natural ability to lead by example to build a stable business on a foundation of analog practices continues to stand the test of time. It’s a case study in living and working in alignment with your values with intention, integrity, and sustainability (in every sense of the world) to build a beautiful community.
Alright. That’s enough. Let’s go leave this place better than we found it.
