🎙️ Studio CPO is back with Episode 60! This week, we’re joined by Dr. Russell Evans, Dean of UCO College of Business, for a thoughtful conversation about community, leadership, and the insights gained from visiting long‑term care facilities across Oklahoma. Dr. Evans reflects on what “aging in place” truly means in small communities, the deep connections that shape rural care, and the challenges facilities face when it comes to needed improvements. The episode also dives into leadership principles, the value of accountability with compassion, and the lessons Dr. Evans wishes he could share with his younger self. It’s a grounded, heartfelt discussion that blends professional wisdom with personal reflection - making this a meaningful listen from start to finish. Take a listen!
