John P. Gillen

MISSION STATEMENT

To earn the long-term loyalty of those we conduct business with, client, candidate and team member, by exceeding expectations with care, consideration and respect to their needs and growth desires; personally and professionally.  By successfully exceeding those expectations, long-term growth and profitability will follow.

About Me

I am so thankful for the professional experiences I have had first as an upper level corporate department head & hiring manager, then staffing & recruiting and finally independent entrepreneurship.  Each of them have brought me to this amazing place in time.  The base of my business acumen comes from one of the worlds largest privately held organizations, where I learned the value of people and empowerment as the main ingredient to expected outcomes.  Since then I have utilized those skills in the recruiting and staffing world and as business leader advisor and consultant.  The blend of my experience and the Patrice & Associates system make me uniquely qualified to serve client and candidate.

I love being entertained by those that excel in their fields; live music, sporting events, theater, dining, movies and TV.  I actively participate in shooting sports, travel, swimming and water polo.  My two children are grown and at the beginning of their own amazing adventures.
