Karen Moore
Founder & CEO, Moore Inc., Tallahassee
Moore’s public relations company has offices in West Palm Beach, Tampa, Denver and New Orleans in addition to its headquarters in Tallahassee. “I wanted to create a company and work with talented people who shared my values of integrity, excellence, respect and teamwork. Who would have thought that in the past 25 years, I would meet world leaders, do media training for the British Olympic team, represent Fortune 500 companies, expand the company to have offices in three time zones and work every day with some of the nation’s greatest talent,” she says.
