Parker went to Williams College where he received his B.A. degree. He later received his M.B.A. degree from the Harvard Business School.[3] He received many honors which include the International Executive of the Year, Certificate of Distinction for Executive Management, and he was inducted into the Hall of Fame for "Inside Business Magazine" in 2004.[2] Most of Parker's working career was with the company, starting from when he was a little boy. Parker was one of the first U.S. manufacturing leaders to embrace the concepts of employee empowerment and building a culture of continuous improvement. His legacy of an entrepreneurial spirit, inquisitive mind, ethic of hard work and ability to embrace fun extends beyond the brick and mortar of a modern corporation and is embedded into the company culture to inspire the company's more than 50,000 employees to believe they can make anything possible. In 1960, Parker joined the Board of Directors. He was elected President in 1968 and served as Chief Executive Officer from 1971 through 1983.[3] He was named Chairman in 1977, a position he retired from in 1999.[4] He had previously retired as an employee in 1994.[2] He died from cancer at the age of 75 in July 2005.[5] {{Portal|Cleveland|}}References1. ^http://ech.case.edu/cgi/article.pl?id=PHC {{DEFAULTSORT:Parker, Patrick S.}}2. ^1 2 http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/07-07-2005/0004063243&EDATE= 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.ien.com/article/patrick-s-parker/114691 |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2012-12-21 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081204130214/http://www.ien.com/article/patrick-s-parker/114691 |archivedate=2008-12-04 |df= }} 4. ^http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=97464&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=58139&highlight= 5. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20160822131856/https://business.highbeam.com/4974/article-1G1-135626339/patrick-s-parker-industry-leader-passes-away HighBeam] 5 : Williams College alumni|Harvard Business School alumni|20th-century American businesspeople|1929 births|2005 deaths |
