OXFORD,
\nMiss. – Jackson businessman Victor Hu Meena, president of Cellular
\nSouth Inc., will discuss the importance of company values in a free,
\npublic lecture Thursday (Nov. 13) at the University of Mississippi.<\/p>\n

The
\nlecture, “Company Core Values: the Non-Negotiable Aspects of Business,”
\nbegins at 4:30 p.m. in Connor Hall, Room 110. Presented especially for
\nMBA students, the program is under the auspices of the School of
\nBusiness Administration’s Otho Smith Lecture Series.
\n

“We hope that students will take away that beyond strategy execution and focus on the bottom line, there are values that are important to every business that should be non-negotiable,” Meena said. “We will present and discuss values that are a part of this category for Cellular South.”<\/p>\n

Meena has headed Cellular South, the nation’s largest privately held wireless provider, since 1997. He played a key role in launching the company in 1988 on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Cellular South, a subsidiary of Telapex Inc., services the entire state of Mississippi as well as parts of four Southeastern states.<\/p>\n

Under Meena’s leadership, the company has received multiple awards, including the President’s Safety Award from the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association, celebrating Cellular South’s leading initiatives in wireless safety education.<\/p>\n

“Hu has a passion to help educate people, and we are pleased that he has partnered with us in this important endeavor,” said Ken Cyree, interim dean of the business school. “We are honored to have someone with his background and accomplishments speak to our students, and we appreciate him sharing the things that have made him successful with our students and faculty.”<\/p>\n

Meena joined Cellular South as general manager in 1987, before the company’s launch, and was named vice president of operations and development in 1990. Previously, he was general manager of Southland Systems of Mississippi.<\/p>\n

Meena is chairman of the board for the Associated Carrier Group and member of the Rural Cellular Association Board of Directors. He also serves on the boards of Telepax Inc., Mississippi Economic Council, Jackson Metropolitan Area Chamber of Commerce and Jackson Preparatory School. He is a member of the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association.<\/p>\n

The Otho Smith Lecture Series, initiated in 1981 through a grant from the Phil B. Hardin Foundation, brings prominent business executives to the UM campus as guest speakers. It is named for the late Meridian businessman, philanthropist and former president of the UM Alumni Association.<\/p>\n
