Ep 376: Building a Dream GovCon Company with Mission-Driven Leadership

In this episode of Game Changers for Government Contractors, host Michael LeJeune interviews Mary Toxey, COO and co-founder of Basis Path. Mary shares her powerful journey from serving as a SIGINT analyst in the Air Force to co-building a women-veteran-owned GovCon firm specializing in modernization and data science. Learn how Basis Path prioritizes “mission over margins,” supports employee growth, and rebounded from major challenges like contract loss and the COVID-19 pandemic. With a team of 55–60 and eyes on becoming a prime in 2025, Basis Path stands out as a people-first, performance-driven company. Mary’s story offers essential lessons on resilience, leadership, and scaling with purpose.
