The Competitive Edge

摘要

Charles Lachman, the executive producer of Inside Edition, defines dedicated-or crazy. The show's executive producer has never once called in sick in 16 years. Even when he was recovering from surgery, he performed his job from his office couch. "I had two knee operations, but I made it to work by show time," Lachman says. "He's the hardest worker in the business," adds Fox's Bill O'Reilly, who once anchored Inside Edition. "He brings his sleeping bag and stays there all day and all night." Lachman starts each day at 6:45 a.m. and usually hangs around until 8 each night. He also comes in on Sundays to prepare for the coming week. In a competitive marketplace, Lachman's work ethic serves him well.
