OM DETTA AVSNITT
In this episode, Paul Batz is joined by Matt Swenson, Director of Corporate Communication at Cargill. Together they reflect on key insights from the February 2026 Good Leadership Breakfast, which featured Steve Grove, CEO and Publisher of The Minnesota Star Tribune. Together, Matt and Paul think back on the key moments from the morning: Steve’s fascinating career journey growing, his candid responses to questions about the viability of local news, and how he and his staff at the “Strib” have navigated unprecedented times for news in Minnesota. Matt Swenson shares powerful insights as a professional in corporate communication about the importance of creating “an oasis of decency” in the workplace that starts with good leaders with good intentions.
