Tony Manyet

Jon is a an extremely skilled manager who quickly grasps the issues, challenges, and opportunities that develop daily within his teams and is able to convert those moments into valuable corrective action and associate development. He is results oriented, highly self motivated, and an excellent servant leader. He has great people and language skills that drive engagement with his associates as well as his customers. He reproduces himself in his associates and pushes everyone (himself included) to improve everyday!

Kristen Peresta

Jon is an experienced General and Project Manager. He is able to juggle many responsibilities with focused attention on each. His leadership style is such that he leads by example: Jon is trustworthy, reliable and professional. In addition to accomplishing the operational responsibilities, Jon also helps grow the capabilities of those who directly report to him. He has served as an integral partner in advancing the careers of those reporting to him. I would very highly recommend Jon as a leader, manager and crucial asset to any company
