John Raftery

John Raftery

Business Advisor and Training & Development

John is not your typical consultant. He will tell you the bad news up front, regarding you and your business. If you are part of the problem, he will let you know. He will work with you (if you are willing), not just to resolve it, but to also help you drive the company and team forward. John is practical, pragmatic and very incisive. These capabilities make him a much sought after business advisor and strategic coach, particularly with owners and their management teams.
