Butler University’s Lacy School of Business has added Old National Bank Chairman Bob Jones as a senior advisor of ethical leadership. Jones will be a member of the school’s leadership team and will also mentor students, faculty and staff. Jones served as Old National Bank’s Chief Executive from 2004 until May and is now serving as chairman till January 2020.

“We expect that by having Bob as part of our team, he will, in the most positive way, force us to be a better version of ourselves,” Dean Steve Standifird said. “He will force us to think deeply about who we are and what we want to accomplish.”

Jones also serves on the boards of the University of Evansville, Riley Children’s Foundation, among many others. Jones was presented with the Sagamore of the Wabash by former Governor Mitch Daniels. 

“I am honored to become part of the Lacy School of Business team,” Jones said. “I have long admired the work of Dean Standifird. I deeply appreciate his vision for the school and aligning it with a focus on ethical leadership.”
