At GIPR, we have always prioritized showing others who we are, and how we work, through our actions. And though we've consistently been a team that values having a strong core culture founded in moral principles, we often struggled with how to define what made us unique and how to communicate that to both ourselves and others. That all changed, though, when we met the next guest of Conversations with GIPR.

Upon meeting Joey Brannon and the Axiom Strategic team, we were given the tools to develop and verbalize exactly what it is that is important to us, what makes our team special, and therefore the value it has for our shareholders.

It was a natural fit - along with helping teams define their values, Joey started Axiom Strategic with the focus of working with leaders who are building purpose-driven businesses that will outlive the current generation of owners. Axiom does this by creating and executing strategic visions with these businesses, and it is clear Joey practices what he preaches by looking at the company, and the team, he has built at Axiom.

Listen below to hear more about his story.

Craig Bazarsky started his career as a corporate and securities attorney where he focused on mid-market mergers and acquisitions, SEC compliance for publicly traded companies, and state regulatory compliance for insurance companies. In 2017, Craig shifted his focus to development and formed BendinRoad Development, LLC. Tune in to this episode of Conversations with GIPR to learn more about his path, what led him to create his development firm, and the relevance in the name BendinRoad.

If Bobby's face looks familiar to you, you are on to something! In addition to Bobby being GIPR's Acquisitions Manager, his father, Dr. Bob Rohrlack, CEO of Tampa Bay Chamber, was the guest earlier this month. Tune in to learn about how Bobby finds and analyzes assets to add to the GIPR pipeline, how he interacts with the team, and how much he can bench.

For this episode of Conversations with GIPR, we are joined by Dr. Bob Rohrlack, CEO of Tampa Bay Chamber. It's no coincidence that GIPR has chosen Tampa Bay as it's headquarters and that we are consistently told how great of a city in which we live and work. Tampa's growth has been exponential over the past 10 years, boasting some of the best sports teams in the nation, rapid development, business incentives attracting even the largest of companies to relocate, and of course, the best airport in the US. All of this has been made possible by the vision and assistance of the Tampa Bay Commerce. However, more important than his ties to the city we call home, Dr. Rohrlack is tied generationally to GIPR through his most important role as father to our Acquisitions Manager Bobby Rohrlack.

Tune in to hear about the work of the Chamber, the vision for the continued growth of Tampa Bay, and how Dr. Rohrlack made his way to the top of one of Tampa's most important organizations.
