Nido is the President of High Point University. He is also the majority shareholder of Great Harvest Bread Company and board member for 15 other companies. Nido coaches JT Foxx and several other people I know personally including a coach I work with and a very successful JT Foxx student partner who I have been coaching for nearly a year.
Recently I attended a special two day meeting at High Point University and for part of one of the days Nido addressed our group. I have listened to Nido CD’s and have watched a number of his presentations which can be found on YouTube. Nothing compares to meeting the man in person. His energy is exemplary and everyone he touches is influenced by his philosophy, wisdom and achievements.
