The organization was responsible for implementing community programs, special events and permanent legacies. Currently, he is chairman of the Detroit 300 Conservancy, the successor organization to Detroit 300. Ford received a bachelor's degree in business administration from Babson College in 1973 and completed the program for management development at the Harvard Business School in 1981.
