Featured Speaker: Leo Meehan, CEO of W.B. Mason

Leo J. Meehan III is President and CEO of W.B. Mason Company, Inc., the Brockton-based, family-owned business founded in 1898. After graduating from Stonehill College, he joined W.B. Mason as a sales representative and rose through its leadership ranks before becoming CEO in 1994. Since taking the helm, Meehan has transformed the regional office products dealer into the largest privately held business products company, guiding its national growth while keeping its headquarters in Brockton and maintaining a strong commitment to customer service, education and the community.

Beyond his business leadership, Meehan has played an active role in education and the broader community. A longtime trustee of Stonehill College, he joined W.B. Mason in making a $10 million commitment that helped establish the Leo J. Meehan School of Business. He has also supported initiatives connecting education, business and workforce development, helping create career opportunities for generations of graduates.

After more than three decades at the helm, Meehan’s career represents a distinctive Brockton business success story. Under his leadership, a family-owned company founded in the city more than a century ago grew from a small regional operation into a multi-billion-dollar national enterprise while remaining rooted in the community where it began.
