As a Kansas businessman for the past twenty-five years, I’ve been very fortunate to have played key roles in two entrepreneurial-driven startup companies, which collectively created more than 500 jobs in the State of Kansas. The first company was ultimately sold for $2 billion. I’m a co-founder of the second as well as the president & CEO.
I first met Greg Orman around three years ago in my search for new investors in my company. I didn’t want “just an investor;” I wanted someone who could help me build an effective organization and develop sales and marketing strategies to achieve significant growth potential in the markets we compete. As I sit here today, finalizing the largest bonus payout we’ve ever made to our employees, I know I made the right decision to engage Greg Orman.
Greg has amazed me by his ability to confront highly complex matters, sometimes marked by divergent thoughts and opinions, and shape a consensus around common goals and solutions. He is able to do this because of his intelligence, honesty and resolve, which quickly become apparent to all who work with him.
Today, I have a stronger team, thanks to Greg Orman. He has provided clarity to complex business challenges and assisted in the implementation of fundamental business processes; all offering measurable improvement in my company’s growth and profitability. Quite frankly, even though I’m old enough to be his father, he is one of the best mentors I’ve ever had.
The fact that Greg is willing to commit his skills and experience to public service is not only refreshing, but gives me faith that genuine, substantive improvement in our political process could actually happen.
