John Reid - owner
John Reid began his career as a military police officer. It was during this time he and his superiors discovered his natural ability to remain calm in high pressure situations. John's "grace under fire" attitude resulted in the added responsibility of planning disaster response and recovery drills which led to his passion for emergency preparedness and response.
At age 24, John became a Safety & Security Director for a large healthcare organization on the West Coast. Since that time, John has had the opportunity to combine his love of emergency management with his ability as a born leader. John has empowered every team he has led to strive to reach their full potential and embrace their individual strengths to ensure the success of the overall team.
With more than 20 years experience in the area of Emergency Management, John has planned and executed 60+ full-scale disaster exercises in 3 countries, 5 states and acted as the healthcare liaison for the national TOPOFF 4 drill. With the inception of IKR Consulting, John has worked with clients to provide services that range from violence prevention to humor in the workplace.
In addition to his consulting work, Mr. Reid is an in demand speaker and is passionate about the presentations he gives as they are based on his personal experiences and the valuable insights they have provided.
