BLAKE G. | Fisher Class of 2026

Blake approached the CEO Program with a goal of gaining real experience... something that would give him a head start and a clearer understanding of how business actually works.

Over the course of the year, he’s seen firsthand that success doesn’t happen instantly. From testing ideas to understanding customer demand, he’s learned that patience and persistence are key parts of the process. He also noted how naturally people fall into different roles when working together - an insight that came from the class business experience.

And while there have been plenty of lessons along the way, he kept one answer simple... his favorite part of CEO so far has been going out to eat in the mornings. 😎

We asked them for one piece of advice & he shared: “Be patient and keep grinding.”

Blake will be showing off his bin cleaning business "Can-Do Cleaners" at the CEO Trade Show TOMORROW - April 16 at the Gibson City Bible Church.
