This special event will be hosted by
Vistage Business Coach John Beatty

John Beatty is a business advisor with a passion for helping owners of small to mid-sized companies conquer their toughest business challenges. He has served as President/CEO of Rotobrush International, rescuing the struggling manufacturing company. He also served as Vice President of Titus and Vice President/Business Unit Leader of Jamak Manufacturing. John holds a BS in Engineering and an MBA.

A former CEO and President of a Dallas-Ft. Worth area manufacturing company, John Beatty brings almost 30 years of diverse and substantive experience to his role as Group Chair for Vistage International . In 2010, after having been a Vistage group member, John was recruited by Vistage to lead its newest CEO group in Dallas, successfully launching the group soon after. Having graduated with an engineering degree from the University of Illinois, John’s career began as a Marketing Engineer with the Trane Company, where he helped launch a successful new product line of commercial air conditioning equipment. From Trane, John moved to Johnson Controls where he was regularly promoted to positions of increasing responsibility, finally having North American marketing responsibility for parts sales, and earning an MBA from Marquette University at night. While at Johnson Controls, John was recruited by Titus to head this $100 million division, leading Titus to significant sales increases, and reorganizing the operation to increase customer service levels – and adding electronic tools when electronic tools were in their infancy. He was subsequently hired as CEO and President of Breathe Easy, Inc., with the task of turning around this manufacturing and sales company. With the company faltering in his first months, John was forced to reach into the company’s bank revolver to make payroll – a sobering event. Fast-forward a few years later, and the company is a cash-generating machine, having grown sales double-digits each year, paid off all debt, and increased gross margin percentages over 30%. While searching for a company to buy and operate, John was asked to lead manufacturing company Jamak’s retail sales division, where he led his team to a huge product placement of almost 1 million units per year at a major Canadian retailer When not working with his CEO’s and other senior executives, John and his wife Donna practice yoga together and enjoy travelling. John volunteers his time with the Dallas County Juvenile Detention system, working with juvenile offenders through mentoring sessions and training workshops.
