Bill LaFortune - Former Tulsa Mayor On Lessons Learned From Time As Mayor, DA, And Judge (Part 2)
21 Jul 2021
#7: Former Tulsa Mayor Bill LaFortune describes the lessons he has learned as Mayor, DA, and Judge. Under Bill's tenure as mayor Tulsa passed Vision 2025, which brought the BOK center to downtown Tulsa and helped catapult the growth now seen in downtown Tulsa and beyond. As we all know, unfortunately, politics is very polarizing and we get to talk about being in the spotlight, dealing with criticism, and understanding how it is a part of what you sign up for in politics. In this show, Bill touches on his decision to run for Mayor, Vision 2025, leadership, service, dealing with criticism, the highs and lows, disappointments, successes, and overall reflection. There are a lot of great lessons and insights that you will be able to take away. More importantly, he talks about family, being a good husband, and father. So grab a pen or notes on your phone and enjoy hearing part 2 with Bill. (This is Part 2 of a 2 Part Series with Bill LaFortune)
