It’s part 2 of our conversation with Jamie Protin, principal with The PROTINGroup. Jamie is a proven leader, community builder, writer and philosopher living his WHY every day. Jamie’s work within the mid-Monongahela Valley as president of the Chamber of Commerce and beyond is actively turning this community around. In today’s interview, he talks about the start of his career at PennDot, branching into engineering and his leap into his own business.
In today’s conversation we delve into the importance of keeping it positive as a leader – keeping those around you motivated. Jamie also draws a lot of energy through his talks within high schools. It’s just one of the many ways Jamie gives back.
His most exciting new project is the development of a group work space in the mid-Monongahela Valley that will also act as an entrepreneur incubator. Details are to follow.
