Mechelle Tippets
I have worked with John for many years, and know him to be a highly skilled and strong program leader. His success in executing, large scale global IT programs is attributed to his leadership excellence, keen strategic planning, and execution precision. Not only does John have the technical expertise and knowledge as an IT program lead, but he also considers and integrates the regulatory compliance requirements into his execution plans. John is a dependable and enjoyable colleague.

Among the individuals I have had the pleasure of knowing over the last 9 years I can't think of anyone I would go to other than John when I need guidance on Project Management, process clarification / improvement initiatives, or general feedback on IT topics. John has the ability to work in a team structure in order to come to quick and well thought out decisions in-order to solve problems. He has impressed me with his ability to communicate both internally with co-workers and executives and externally with vendors and service providers. Given the choice of Project Managers to work with I would easily pick John.
