Derek Volk Email & Phone Number

My kids think I spend my days talking about brown boxes. Truthfully, I do spend at least some of my day solving packaging problems and brainstorming how to sell more boxes. Yes, I am passionate about packaging. I am also passionate about my company and its reputation in the world, as well as about the people that I employ and the customers we supply.When you own your own company, the buck starts and ends with you. Everything is your problem, your responsibility, your risk and your concern.Most of my day is dedicated to leading my third generation family business into the fourth generation and beyond. I dedicate my days to supporting my associates and helping them succeed, not only at their jobs, but in life. I am also passionate about my faith and my family. In 2015 I published my first book Chasing the Rabbit: A Dad's Life Raising a Son on the Spectrum. It is a memoir about my experience raising a challenging child with autism. My son and I then spent several years traveling and speaking at conferences across the country. I learned a lot about myself, about audiences and about my son on those trips. Mostly, I learned that even though I am a very good speaker, my son Dylan Volk is an amazing speaker, capable of mesmerizing audiences around the country.
