The unstoppable Michael McCain via financialpost
Michael McCain with his father, Wallace McCain, in 1995.Wallace and Michael had a Plan B, however, and decamped for Toronto in 1995 to partner with the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan to buy a Canadian food industry giant with an appealing, patriotic name, but owned by a distant, disinterested British holding company.
Wallace was no less of a presence than his son, though he exuded a certain folksy East Coast charm, and peppered his speech with F-bombs skilfully employed as nouns, adjectives, adverbs, verbs and so on. Article content McCain introduced an intensive management training program. Along with his dad and a few other executives, he hammered out a list of company leadership values. He attended every meeting at every level; he always came prepared and he often knew more than the presenter. No one worked harder, no one asked more questions. If the position he had staked out wasn’t the best idea on the table, he was open to changing his mind.
What I centred my entire run around is the notion that people, and culture, are what I want to stand for“What I centred my entire run around is the notion that people, and culture, are what I want to stand for,” he said. “Knowing there is a desire to assign blame, the buck stops here,” McCain said at the time. “I emphasize: this is our accountability, and it’s ours to fix.”
Right or wrong, this was “vintage” McCain, Vels said. Not everyone agreed with his decision to speak out. McCain and Lan, two old friends from forever — they Facetime daily, talk politics, and share goofy YouTube videos — resolved to respectfully disagree on the Trump affair, after much discussion. The guy from New Jersey thought it was a mistake then, and he still thinks it was a mistake now.
