A conversation with Bill Mello, president of J.P. Turner & Company and former Vietnam-era Marine
by Jason Jones
In this latest installment of Battlefield to Business, listen to host Jason Jones interview Bill Mello, president of Atlanta-based J.P.Turner & Company. Bill, a Vietnam-era Marine, recounts life lessons learned during boot camp as a young recruit. His drill sergeant instilled an ethic of being the best and giving his all – regardless of the task – and pressing through adversity by taking motivation from the perseverance of his fellow leathernecks. Finally, he discusses why he looks favorably upon potential employees who have military experience.
