Meet Rob Chatfield, Our New CEO | A Quick Q&A with the New Boss

FreeToChooseNetwork0 Comments

Q: What attracted you to Free To Choose Network? A: I saw an advertisement for “Free To Choose Network” and immediately thought: “That has to be about Milton Friedman!”  But good looks only go so far in a relationship.  After I met with the entire team in Erie, I knew their culture of self-management and determination to grow the organization would draw me in like a magnet. Q: It’s always a daunting challenge to fill the shoes of a founder. What will your FTCN shoes look like? A: Probably J&M slip-ons, with a tassel…  We need to be flexible to …

FreeToChooseNetwork0 Comments

But today, instead of bouncing back, too many Americans have become ensnared in the net. Of course, the system has helped some people, …

I was not politically focused or active but by 1974 I realized my “artistic” friends loved freedom to do as they wished, but were jealous and bitter when others used their freedom to start businesses and accumulate wealth. I thought they were hypocritical. I started having weekly breakfasts with an Erie business leader …
