Judy Samuels

Rebekah S. Heppner

Chapter Chapter Two in The Lost Leaders, 2013, pp 17-20 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Judy Samuels was certainly not destined for the business world. Graduating from high school in 1968, she was encouraged to choose a traditionally female career and ended up as a secretary in a bank. She set herself the goal of becoming a loan officer but, along the way, she found her true calling: human resources. Her story provides a unique benefit to this discussion of Lost Leaders because she was directly involved in the corporate diversity movement at a major corporation. Judy’s love of human resources came more from her competitive instinct than any need to nurture. She loved the “hunt” of finding the right person for each job and the challenge of transforming a corporate culture.
