Jonathan Baier - CEO
My passion to help people accomplish their missions and dreams emerged while I was in college. I was a steward, helping an environmental non-profit, The Inland Sea Society. While majoring in computer information systems at the environmentally focused college of Northland, I came up with the idea of recycling computers and co-founded the program called “Longrun.” The most memorable moment is when we accomplished the goal of preventing hundreds of computers from being dumped into the lake. Another proud moment was our co-operative program where high school students and seniors were given hands-on experience with real computers. This experience was a breakthrough for me. I proved to myself that I can make a difference to the world by combining my knowledge in IT + NPO/small business owners. At the same time, I was confident enough to start my own business: ResponnComm.
