From OSU to CEO with 2020 Alumni Fellow Ric Campo
Ric speaks about how Camden has gone from good to great and why companies need to put their employees, customers and communities before earnings.
Beavers know all about building community. Ric Campo got his start during his time at Oregon State in the business program and as a member of Sigma Chi fraternity. Now, he’s spent three successful decades building professional esteem in the real estate industry while simultaneously building up his local community. The co-founder, CEO and chairman of Camden Property Trust makes his community a great place to build a life through generosity to a community of residents devastated by coronavirus-related income loss, and involvement with organizations that focus on the economic development, business outlook and future growth of the city.
During the presentation, Ric speaks about how Camden has gone from good to great and why companies need to put their employees, customers and communities before earnings. Alumni Fellow Introduction by Jim Coakley, Interim Dean, College of Business
