Meeting Fred Bass (owner of The Strand) was one of the highlights for me! He is what Jim Collins (Good to Great) would call a Level 5 Leader. On any given day, you may find Fred working the floor at The Strand. Ask him a question, he is a wealth of knowledge and he has an incredibly courteous staff. Thank you for the video!
Thanks for this video series on the Strand. I lived in the Tri-State area for 20+ years and didn’t even know the place existed. I will definitely check it out when I go back to the best-coast.
Ian,
The place is magic…
