Josh Newton, President and CEO of the UConn Foundation

 

Success quote: “There is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn’t mind who gets the credit.” – Robert W. Woodruff

 

Best piece of advice Josh has ever received: “When you see a turtle on a fencepost it didn’t get there by itself.” No matter where you go and what you do, remember the people that have helped you get to that point.

 

Personal habit that contributes to David’s success: Planning/scheduling. At any moment, Josh is scheduled for the next 3 months.
