| On to the Goal: Deseret Management's Rodney H. Brady |
| 'Goal driven' is a term often associated with type-A
executives, but LDS Church-owned Deseret Management Company's Rodney H.
Brady takes goals to a level that few manage -- and he meets his goals.
Brady, Chief Executive Officer of the holding company for The Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' profit-making businesses, started out
setting goals in high school -- 200 of them. So far he has met 175 of those
200, while setting and meeting many more in the intervening fifty years. |

that the LDS Church has ever constructed. The story of its construction
dates to 1995, when LDS architects Leland Gray and Kerry Neilson took a
theatre design seminar from S. Leonard Auerbach at Harvard. That led to
Auerbach's company, Auerbach + Associates, consulting on the project. |

quality of life, where housing is reasonably priced, where there are
already 2,500 technology companies and three major research
institutions. Would you be interested?" |
