Leigh Fox was drawn to science, so he got a degree in geology. It was working in the field, specifically seeing just how much Duck Tape his company was using and wondering who was getting paid for all of that, which caused him to shift his focus to business. He talks about the overhaul of Altafiber's downtown headquarters, consolidating for seven floors into two; how he managed the shift from Cincinnati Bell to Altafiber; and how 30 years of playing guitar keeps him grounded and humbled.Above the Fold is a podcast by the Cincinnati Business Courier.
