Passion for the Business

Kidd describes his management style as hands-on and operationally oriented, with a sincere respect for people being at the core. He also places a high value on a sense of humor. "It's important in life to be able to laugh—at times, at yourself," he says. He put this into practice at Superior Label Systems with "Ken's Korny Kwips," a regular feature in the company newsletter. "And trust me, it was corny," he adds.
