How Does My Role Help Reveal Human Potential:
When I have the privilege of doing a one on one personal debrief and the VAA has new insight into who they naturally are and how they can leverage their talent. We are all capable of greatness but it takes self-awareness to know our strengths and weaknesses.  This is what empowers our VAA’s as they bring their knowledge, expertise and experiences to their own clients. While using our assessments to create a relationship of transparency and thus birthing change in individual lives and company dynamics.

What They Think About Us

This is to advise that I have known John Garrott personally for several years, and know him to be a man of highest integrity. Our organization discovered 4M's leadership assessments and development program to be extremely beneficial. John is a very good communicator, and I highly recommend him as a consultant to help develop leaders and enhance team building.


Gary L. Gaines
President and CEO, Federal Land Bank of North Mississippi

This letter is written as evidence of our highly-valued partnership with the 4M Foundation. 4M has been a vital partner in our work and has been of great assistance.


Bishop Abraham Tagoe
Accra Diocese
The Methodist Church of Ghana (West Africa)

It is a great honor for me to recommend and strongly endorse John Garrott. In my position as Lay Leader for the District, John has provided me significant guidance and mentorship. John is unquestionably a leader and highly motivated self-starter with exceptional interpersonal skills and abilities. His character is impeccable and his integrity unquestionable. John has my highest recommendation.


William B. Jernigan, Major General MSANG Retired
Chief Executive Officer
Global Perspectives for Advanced Technology Solutions, LLC

 

 It has been my privilege, on several occasions, to work with Rev. John Garrott at events and on missional projects within the United Methodist Church. Each time John brought his unique skills as a pastor, an evangelist, a global missionary, a leadership consultant, and a passionate follower of Jesus Christ. Each time John added insight to the conversation and spiritual maturity to the process. John has been successful in neighborhood evangelism, congregational renewal, and effective growth of an entire district. Over the 28 years I have known John, he has consistently enhanced the teams he leads and the teams he participates in. His proven effectiveness as a strategic missional leader in partnership with the District Superintendent is the most important work I have seen. It is the way to ensure the future for the United Methodist Church—and any other denominations interested in the spiritual vitality of their congregations in a geographic area. 


Tom Albin
Dean of The Upper Room Ministries and Ecumenical Relations, the United Methodist Church 

John is a self-starter with exceptional skills in team building and communication. He also has an unrelenting dedication to the less fortunate. I trust John's advice and counsel. Working with me on efforts ranging from criminal rehabilitation to youth mentoring, he has been very helpful to this mayor. He has my strongest recommendation.
