Tom Cilek’s New Best Friend: John Lohman

If you’ve been in the Corridor business community for even a short time, you already know Tom Cilek. He’s a senior vice president at a bank, a former lawyer and one of the Corridor’s most connected business leaders. He loves making new friends, and making things happen in Eastern Iowa.

We’ve decided to capture Tom’s inside conversations with the region’s leading business minds in a new monthly podcast, “Tom Cilek’s New Best Friend,” presented by (his employer) West Bank. In the latest episode, Tom sits down with John Lohman, the founder and publisher of the Corridor Business Journal, to discuss his time as Herky the Hawk, his decision to start a newspaper and the evolution of the Creative Corridor region and brand.
