2012 Hall of Fame: Mike Graff - Answering Print's 911 Call

The realist in Graff is also mindful of the impact his decisions have on the lives of his employees, as well as their families. But, that's not necessarily a bad thing, either. He feels indebted to them on many levels.

"Nothing makes me happier than when we have a family event at the company," he says. "Picnics, barbecues, cleanup events around town. When I see the kids and spouses of the people who work with us…it means everything to me to know that we can make their lives enjoyable. But, that responsibility also keeps you up at night; you carry it with you, even on weekends or on vacation."
