Leadership

Persistent, patient, committed, pragmatic, and honest – words that Max Fisher’s friends and business colleagues have used to describe him over the years. All are noted qualities of a leader. Along with these qualities, Fisher had an intense, emotional desire to return Detroit to prominence after economic depression and socio-political turmoil plagued the city from the late 1950s to the late 1980s. He devoted millions of hours and millions of dollars to have a positive impact on the direction Detroit was going as a major city and a community of people.
