“PEOs make sense for a business owner. It makes it SO much easier when you don’t have to worry about the day to day drudgery of dealing with employee issues. It’s nice to know that I’m helping people build their businesses without having to fret over the problems.”
John William “Will” Tenney is the CEO of Tenncom Group Insurance. He is a former airline pilot and software engineer.
“John or Will?” His dad was John Richard Tenney and went by Jack. To avoid confusion, his family referred to John William as “Will.” His Dad introduced him to the PEO industry, so if you know him as Will, you probably met him in that industry or through a family acquaintance.
He is a licensed insurance agent by the state of Florida, and several other states on a non-resident basis: Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, New York, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Utah to name a few.
John Will’s previous experience as a insurance auditor/trainer launched his career serving PEOs for their Workers’ Comp needs.
He has helped several PEOs increase their bottom line by enhancing their workers’ comp programs.
