Clyde and his wife Debbie live in Greenville, and are involved with various community volunteer groups, including The Friends of Paris Mountain State Park.
While some companies complain that compliance with Sarbanes Oxley have caused them undue hardship, Clyde Fowler has a completely different take. He’ll tell you that the work is hard, but that his company and organization are stronger for the process. To learn about how Rockwell Automation’s Power Systems Division tackled Sarbanes Oxley and came out on top, join us for our April Learning Lunch.
