Wood Dickinson
wood
Wood worked for Dickinson Theatres for 20 years. It was a family held business founded in 1920. For 10 of those years he was president/CEO of the company. Wood grew the company from a $20M a year theatre chain to a $40M a year chain. The prior 10 years he spent developing the IT resources and systems.

Dickinson had a core staff of 30 Home Office people and 40 managers in the field. At times each year Dickinson would staff up to 2000 staff members. His interaction was with the Board and senior management as well as doormen, ushers and everything in between. Wood reshaped the company from a command and control structure to a dynamic and creative environment where failure was an option and personal growth was paramount.

In 1994 Wood began teaching the 7 Habits program in the Dickinson company. He aided the then Covey Leadership Center to develop a one day class for frontline staff so everyone could be touched by the effort. Wood was profiled in Dr. Covey’s book Living the 7 Habits.
