  TALLAHASSEE, FL - 09/15/2017 (PRESS RELEASE JET)

America’s largest Christian business advisory network, The C12 Group, announces the formation of the C12 Group in Northwest Florida with Ricky Harper as a Chair in that region.  C12 Group has over twenty peer advisory groups established throughout the state.  With the addition of Harper in Northwest Florida, C12 will provide even more Christian business owners and executives across the region with business counsel, a trusted peer advisory group, and ministry development.

"We are thrilled to welcome Ricky Harper, serving Christian Presidents, Owners and CEOs. He brings extensive experience as a leader, business owner, and visionary to The C12 Group," said C12 Vice President of Market Expansion, David Gullotti. "Harper’s experience and passion for helping business owners accomplish goals and reach top performance will be a great source of encouragement to many Christian CEOs, helping them to achieve business excellence, while bringing forth ministry impact in and through their companies."

Harper brings decades of leadership, management, consulting and entrepreneurial experience to his new role as C12 Chair, including serving in the U.S. Army. Prior to C12, Harper spent nearly twenty years in various leadership roles at GE Healthcare until an opportunity came to work for Florida’s Division of Corporations.  Acting as Chief Information Officer and Business Identity Theft Investigator, Harper was tasked to help enact laws that would mitigate business identity theft. 

“As a C12 Chair, I am excited to see how God is using Christian business owners to impact the marketplace,” explained Harper. “I have a passion for investing in people, coaching and teaching, and I want to use these skills to be a part of this trend.  Business owners benefit greatly from the 'iron sharpens iron' concept that is the basis of a peer advisory board.  A board of like-minded business owners working together on their businesses and faith is a powerful tool for professional and personal growth, especially when it is founded on accountability.  More importantly, C12 is a powerful tool for creating life change in the workplace and community.”
