The Precious Present with Steve Jacobson

Feb 15, 2021 | The Professional Noticer

This week, Andy’s hosts Steve “Jake" Jacobson—Founder and CEO of Fairway Independent Mortgage—a company that closed more than $65 billion in 2020.

Tune in to hear Jake discuss his unusual commitment to serving others and how that stemmed from growing up with sports and playing college basketball for Wisconsin. You’ll hear about “the precious present” mindset coach Bo Ryan taught and how it continues to impact his life. 

Andy and Jake also dig into Fairway’s Ten Core Values and the dramatic ways in which they have impacted the company's 9,500-plus team members.  As a hilarious added bonus, you’ll hear Andy quiz his friend about the several hundred nicknames Jake has coined around the Fairway office and how that came about!

Find more about Fairway at their website, and be sure to connect with them on Facebook.
