Pat Sculley joined Electronic Data Systems (EDS) in 1976.  At the time, the company was almost 12 years old, and because of its early success already had exceeded $300 million in revenue.  During the next 23 years, EDS’ revenues would soar to over $20 billion.  This provided significant opportunity to Pat and the many thousands of EDS employees who joined the company.  Pat served in various leadership positions primarily outside the United States.  He was a project manager for two years in Iran.  He started EDS’ business in Mexico.  He served as an account manager to Bank of America in London, directing the development of an international banking system.  He was the President of EDS Japan for five years.  He concluded his service at EDS as the Director of Corporate Planning.

Pat then spent two years as the Chief Operations Officer for a start-up company.  He helped raise $18 million from New York venture capital companies and used the funds to acquire and integrate four companies.

Pat attended the U. S. Military Academy at West Point where he graduated in 1970 with a B.S in Engineering.  He served six years in the U.S. Army.  He commanded a mechanized infantry company in Germany, served as an aide-de-camp to a division level general officer, and was an instructor for two years in the Army’s elite Ranger School.

Pat was also a member of Ross Perot's rescue team that freed two of EDS's executives being held hostage in an Iranian prison in 1979. Ken Follett documented the story in his book On Wings of Eagles.

Pat and his wife, Mary, moved to the Phoenix area at the end of 2002.  They joined the philanthropic organization, Social Venture Partners Arizona and have devoted their time to several non-profit organizations in the area.  For the past three years, Pat has served as the CEO/President of Kids at Hope, a national non-profit changing the paradigm of youth services in the United States.
