Presentation
Culture, Collaboration and Trust by Wynne Odell, Odell Brewing Co.
Tapping into the passion and perseverance that ferments into a world-class bottle of beer and how those values flow into Trusting Digital in a Model-Based Enterprise.
Odell Brewing is now the 23rd largest craft brewery in the country distributing beer to just 18 states. Odell’s roots were built on English style ales, but the brewery is now best known for its broad range of hop-forward beers. Innovation and creativity meet balance, consistency and quality in each brew.
This balance is a not just a philosophy for the beers Odell Brewing crafts, it’s a foundation for the company as a whole. The brewery’s managed growth strategy has created and fostered a culture of family and collaboration. In 2015, the Odell family founders sold the majority of the company to its co-workers (now co-owners) in a combined management buyout and ESOP.
Co-Founder and CEO, Wynne Odell, will bring brewing and Model-Based Enterprise parallels to the table as she reflects on:
Culture: Values & Purpose
Collaboration: Benefits of Putting People First
Trust: Public vs Private Ownership
… and how these pair with
Profit: often the most accurate gauge of value delivered to the customer
Paced Growth: the discipline to focus on long-term strategies
Pragmatic Innovation while preserving the Entrepreneurial Spirit
And yes. We will have at least one of Odell Brewing Co.’s offerings on tap during Tuesday evening’s CAD + Cocktails gathering!
