Mike Duff Unfiltered: Life, Leadership & Community
Join us for a meaningful morning of insights and inspiration with Mike Duff, whose 34-year career at Penske Transportation Solutions and deep involvement in community leadership have left an indelible mark on Greater Reading.
Mike will reflect on the unvarnished truths he's learned throughout his professional journey—from saying "yes" to unexpected opportunities, to leading with authenticity, to building a life rooted in service and connection. With his trademark honesty and warmth, Mike will share the lessons that shaped not only his career, but also his commitment to giving back through civic and nonprofit leadership.
Whether you’re early in your career or looking to re-center your professional purpose, this conversation will leave you thinking about how to show up fully, lead with integrity and make a lasting difference.
