His appointment marks a major step in GMP’s North American growth strategy as the company expands its Strategic Partnerships, Value-Added Reseller (VAR), and Installation and Service Partner (ISP) network and launches a dedicated Airport Vertical to support operators and partners pursuing aviation-related opportunities. In this role, Joy will lead GMP’s go-to-market execution, driving partner enablement, revenue growth, and enterprise relationships across the region. He will also spearhead GMP’s Airport Vertical, a new growth initiative designed to help airports and operators increase revenue and improve passenger experience through AI-driven analytics and dwell-time optimization. His deep understanding of both the operator and supplier sides of the business makes him uniquely qualified to guide GMP’s expanding partner ecosystem and ensure every partner is equipped to deploy, service, and scale GMP’s solutions with confidence. Joy currently serves as Chief Executive Officer of Carolina Time & Parking Group (CTPG), where he leads seven regional offices across the Carolinas, Georgia, and Virginia and has driven growth across on-street and off-street operations, access control, and PARCS integrations.

That translates directly into the kind of leadership we need as we expand our VAR and ISP network and bring new verticals like airports into focus.” “Clint has a proven ability to build trust, scale partnerships, and execute with precision,” said Chirag Jain, CEO of Get My Parking. “He understands how technology and collaboration intersect to deliver value, and that makes him an ideal fit for our mission to transform mobility infrastructure worldwide.” About Get My Parking Get My Parking (GMP) is a global software leader transforming smart parking with IoT, AI, and cloud-based automation.

October's Ask the Experts - More Great Answers!

The October Ask the Experts column featured some great responses from IPMI thought leaders, but there is never enough space for all the great answers! Here are more thought-provoking responses.  How can large-scale parking operations (education, healthcare, airports, business parks, retail centers, etc.) leverage emerging technologies to improve both parking management and the overall mobility experience?   Scott Petri, President, Mobility Parking Advisors  “Analyzing gaps in existing technology or identifying best-in-class technologies for operational functions provides efficiencies, potential revenue, enhancements, and greater customer satisfaction, particularly when viewed from community needs and customer surveys.”   Cameron Lang, Sales Manager US, HotSpot Parking, a Product of Arcadis  “Cities and large-scale parking operations can use new technologies like curbside data, mobile apps, and automated payment systems to make parking easier and more efficient. These tools help maximize parking space usage, simplify entry and payment processes, and reduce paperwork. They also improve the overall traveler's experience by offering real-time updates on available spaces and connecting parking systems with other transportation options for seamless travel.”   Katherine Beaty, PTMP, President, Beaty Solutions  “When parking works well, people do not notice it.  Leveraging the right tech is what makes us invisible, and really, that is the goal.   For example, airports can sync with return flight information, allowing travelers to come back to a seamless handoff when using a valet.”   Erik Nelson, PCIP, Principal, Walker Consultants  “Large-scale operations need to carefully plan for the implementation of emerging technologies. Pilot programs are a good way to test functionality, but they can’t demonstrate a system’s ability to scale. That requires careful coordination with the vendor and stress tests of their system prior to broader rollout.”   Chris Phenner, VP of Business Development, Flash, Inc.  “Creating Digital Locations within platforms like Apple Maps, Google Maps, Ticketmaster, and TomTom can drive millions of dollars in bookings annually, and this channel is growing faster than expected.”   Brett Wood, PE, PTMP, President, Wood Solutions Group  “With an abundance of technologies supporting multiple facets of operations and management, we have more data than ever to truly understand user behaviors. Advanced operations are beginning to better utilize this data to better align resources and policies to the needs of the users, helping to better balance demands across all modes of transportation in the mobility spectrum.”

ChatGPT is a Tool, Not a Talent Strategy

In a world where generative AI tools have become so prevalent, they now serve a multitude of purposes, from writing emails to setting reminders to creating presentations. Yet a concerning and growing trend has emerged among organizations both large and small. Instead of prioritizing employee development, many have become dangerously obsessed with leveraging AI as a replacement rather than a supplement for their human capital workforce. This is where it becomes alarming at the organizational level, and why we must raise awareness before it spirals out of control. Employee development and generative AI are two distinct tools that serve very different purposes in our daily operations. Too often, I meet with leaders who say, “I’ll just have AI do it,” or “We can let ChatGPT come up with something,” when discussing new ideas or projects. The first question that comes to my mind is simple: Do you have anyone on staff who can actually move this project forward? Using AI is valuable, but eventually you will hit a roadblock, and that is where projects stall. More importantly, where is your next generation of talent coming from? Over reliance on AI breeds stagnation in the workforce, erodes institutional knowledge, and risks leaving organizations without the human capacity to innovate, adapt, and lead. The solution is not to reject AI but to use it responsibly. Instead of relying solely on AI, I suggest you exploit it through a simple framework: Integrate: Use AI to streamline routine, low-value tasks such as scheduling, document drafting, or data summarization. Invest: Reinvest the time and cost savings from AI into employee development programs. Innovate: Encourage teams to co-create with AI rather than outsource entirely to it. Leaders who strike this balance will future-proof their organizations while empowering the workforce that drives lasting success. Dr. George J.
