I have known John for approximately six years and am very impressed with his visionary and "get it done" attitude. John and I first met each other when he consulted with me regarding a complex international legal issue involved in his business. As I recall, his business involved supplying workers for pipeline projects along the Pacific Rim and supplying as well the necessary project management. Although he could have supplied domestic labor as most subcontractors likely would have done, he determined that hiring international labor (although inherently more difficult from a management standpoint) would be a great cost benefit to his potential clients. As we continued to work together on the project, I was impressed by the depth of John's business understanding and his ability to view operations not only from the current standpoint, but especially with a vision of what they could become in the future. I have been blessed to work on further projects with John throughout the past six years and have never doubted his ability to look beyond the obvious obstacles to arrive at innovative solutions. He has demonstrated this unique skill time and time again. Beyond this, John has the rare ability to surround himself with people who fill in any gaps in knowledge and/or skills and to motivate them toward a common goal. It is fair to say that he is a great organizational leader, able to work with diverse personality types and one who amplifies the skills and abilities of others. The most important item that I can add about John is that he exhibits the utmost integrity. He also has what many have called the "abundance mentality" which has inspired me to be a better person toward my family and all around me. I am convinced that the addition of John Laney to your professional team will result in increased revenues and/or decreased costs. I recommend him wholeheartedly."
