I recently spoke with Michele Courton Brown, who is the CEO of Quality Interactions. She spoke of her early beginnings and how her mom moved in the world as a Renaissance woman. She was an avid Scuba diver, traveled and created ways in which Michele could see the world. With over 25 years of experience in leadership, she spoke about her points of pride. One of the highlights was a community program she established that provided free access to Bank of America customers to see the museums around Boston and beyond. She spoke about receiving letters from customers who applauded the program and shared how great it was to be able to attend these museums and see the art and have this type of access
