John’s ability to advocate for the customer as well as maintain the integrity of the organization is unmatched. When I reported to him, he had just taken over the Operations portion of a project on which we were both working. He immediately crafted a plan to complete the application along with processes for testing and documentation. John handled the details of each screen, trained the developers and engineers on how the system worked and edited the documentation to convey system specifics. He was ever available to discuss the project and was always open to new ideas and putting them into practice. Working with John has taught me so much about business and how a good management style can inspire a team.
