Allan sent a message to Paul Allen – Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Vulcan Inc. – Email Address that said:
Hello Mr. Allen,
I am a senior business student studying management at George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon. We have been given an assignment to interview someone whom we consider to be a high capacity leader. I was wondering if you would be interested in having a quick 10 minute conversation, by phone, sometime in the near future to answer a few questions if your schedule allows it.
Thank you sincerely for your consideration,
Allan
