Summary
🎙️ Today on Exploring the Marketplace: Shawn Bolz and Bob Hasson sit down with Preston Poore — veteran Fortune 500 executive, leadership coach, and Selah Award–winning author — for an incredible conversation about integrity, faith, and redemption in the workplace.
With over 30 years of leadership experience at The Coca-Cola Company and The Hershey Company, Preston shares how he went from keeping faith and work in separate boxes to fully integrating his relationship with Jesus into every part of his career.
You’ll hear how a false accusation just weeks before retirement became a defining moment that tested and strengthened his faith — and how God turned fear into peace and protection. Preston also opens up about his own leadership transformation: from being a results-driven boss who pushed people away to becoming a servant leader shaped by grace.
Now a certified Maxwell Leadership coach, Colson Fellow, and founder of The Poore Group, Preston helps leaders around the world live and lead with character, emotional intelligence, and Christ-centered purpose.
💡 Tune in to be inspired by Preston’s story of integrity under fire, transformation through humility, and the power of surrendering your career — and your calling — to God.
