On this episode of the AEI Idea Makers Podcast we sit down with Geoffrey Rehnert, the co-founder and co-CEO of the Audax Group. Previously, he served as managing director of Bain Capital, which he helped start with Mitt Romney in 1984.

Among other words of advice in this conversation, Mr. Rehnert echoes Ben Franklin in reminding young professionals that “you’re known by the company you keep.” Later describing the company that he has kept in his own career, Mr. Rehnert shares about working at Bain Capital with Mitt Romney, and why he eventually decided to leave to start his own firm.
