It has not been a smooth road from coal to clean energy. Kiran Bhatraju grew up in rural Kentucky where the economy depended on coal. The son of an immigrant doctor, his knowledge is deep and his perspective unique. From Appellation author, (check out his biography of Eula Hall called Mud Creek Medicine) to Capitol Hill, Kiran knows people and understands policy. Which is how he came to energy through, sales and start ups, to be the CEO of Arcadia. Kiran shares his secrets to building a power-team, holding on to enthusiasm and attracting employees that are on a mission. Arcadia’s mission?
