In this episode of Board Matters, host Dale Bannon talks with Dick Hagerty, the longest-serving member of The Salvation Army’s National Advisory Board. Drawing on more than five decades of board service and a wide-ranging career in accounting, construction, real estate development and entrepreneurship, Hagerty reflects on the relationships, discipline and commitment that shape effective leadership. He shares how his Salvation Army roots led him to local and national board service and explains why strong management teams, mission buy-in and active participation are essential to a thriving advisory board.
Hagerty also discusses pursuing excellence without losing sight of people or purpose, how The Salvation Army tells its story effectively and the spiritual legacy that continues to shape the National Advisory Board. Along the way, he recounts lessons from business, military service and aviation, offers practical advice for present and future board members, and shares why mentoring officers and cadets remains central to his calling.
