FOUNDER'S STORY
Chris Gannett believes Business is the leverage point for global change, and that outsized investor and company returns are decided by the sum of leaders' awareness, intention, resilience, and execution.
​
These insights became apparent to him following the successful completion of Apollo Global Management's purchase of NASDAQ: CKXE. At the time, he and his family were living in beautiful, tree-lined Fort Greene, Brooklyn.
​
Throughout his career, Chris has played a key role in raising 10s of millions in funding and contributing to over $500 million in M&A and enterprise value. His work has been instrumental in achieving multiple Grammy Awards, five Emmy Awards, three Guinness World Records, three successful turnarounds, three exits, and two Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader Awards. He was also honored with Sony’s CEO Award for Global Entrepreneurial Achievement.
​
Yet, what's resonated with him most was witnessing firsthand what didn’t work.
Catalyzed by the Covid-era loss of his father and a personal desire to be of service, Chris formed Gannett.Partners in 2022 to build confidence, communication, presence and shared humanity in those who lead, and help them drive positive change and superior returns in the companies and communities they serve.​
