I am thankful for the opportunities that have come my way and for the time that I have spent as President of Binkley & Barfield. The time is right for this transition, and I look forward to working with JR and our executive management team to help us get to our next stage as a company under JR’s leadership.”

“JR is one of the most skilled integrators and teachers I have ever worked with,” said Brett Binkley, Chief Executive Officer of Binkley & Barfield. “His experience and knowledge transcend the leadership spectrum to bring a new level of structure and discipline into our organizational relationships. As a long-term owner, we know how important it is to plan for and manage leadership transitions so that we maintain momentum and stay focused on exceeding our customers’ expectations. I truly appreciate Larry’s and JR’s efforts to ensure a very smooth transition, and we look forward to continuing the important work that Binkley & Barfield delivers each and every day.”
