Episode 4
Teresa McGeehan is the owner/operator of 19 McDonald’s restaurants in the Ozarks. She started at the restaurant as a teenager in an entry-level job and worked in nearly every leadership position before becoming an owner. At that time, she was one of only two female McDonald’s owners in the region. That wasn’t the only barrier she’s overcome. In her teens and into adulthood, Teresa experienced domestic violence. It was her then boss and now husband and business partner, Chip, who helped her discover her worth and find her confidence. In this episode, we talk about how Teresa’s leadership style has changed over the years, how she learned to trust and believe in herself and why she’s paying it forward with her employees today.
