Teamwork makes the dream work, the saying goes, and teams can come in varying shapes and sizes. This month, however, we’re recognizing two-person teams in AMP’s second-annual Dynamic Duos.
Selected from reader nominations, Dynamic Duos recognizes those two-person teams — be they spouses, partners, cousins, whatever — who are making an impact in Arkansas business.
This year’s set represents a wide array of influence and reach. For example, Danyelle and Eric Musselman are included, and it’s difficult to imagine a more dynamic pair in Arkansas. (Or the solar system, for that matter.) But our 2022 dynamos also include those whose work resides more under the radar and is just as impactful, such as Becky and Nathan Pittman or Debbie Doss and Cowper Chadbourn.
The duos recognized in this month’s issue represent everything from conservation and finance to restaurants and health care. And they all have great stories to tell.
Also, be sure to check out Dwain Hebda’s piece on the forward momentum taking place at the Port of Little Rock. Much attention is rightfully focused on the emergence of Mississippi County in the state’s northeast corner as a true national steel hub, and of course all the continued growth northwest, but Bryan Day and the port are reeling in their own big fish.
Plus, Cole Plafcan, newly minted chief of the newly minted agriculture division at Simmons Bank, drops by for an exec Q&A; Angela Forsyth chats with Judy McReynolds at ArcBest; Becky Gillette examines the rise of travel nurses and the growing need for Arkansas medical students to “heal local” after graduation; and Digs of the Deal tackles the annual Coon Supper in Gillett.
And that’s just a tease.
As always, thank you for reading. Fantastic news outlets abound across Arkansas, and we’re not trying to replace any of them. Our hope is to fill a certain niche with this magazine, and your support helps us do it.
Let me know how we’re doing, good or bad, at MCarter@ARMoneyandPolitics.com.
