Bob Staton

Bob Staton is the president of Presbyterian College in Clinton, SC. He is a member of the class of 1968 of Presbyterian College, and has his law degree from the University of South Carolina.  Previously, Bob served as the chairman and CEO of Colonial Life Insurance.

Bob has a clear sense of what leadership means—helping people move forward to a place they would not go on their own. Leadership means moving forward. I was particularly interested to hear Bob talk about not getting hung up on every little detail, but to focus on continuing to move forward. Bob sees listening, listening to truly understand as a key element of real life leadership.
