Our industry experts share their insights and offer valuable training and education.
What makes a great leader? Someone who makes their employees feels secure by creating trust and safety in an open book environment – especially in an uneven economy – means taking on big responsibility. Join Mark Bradley as he sits down with Ryan Markewich, Founder and Part Owner of Creative Roots Landscaping to discuss how Ryan is managing his landscape business during these unprecedented times.
ABOUT: Ryan Markewich
Twenty five years ago Ryan Markewich had a vision, a truck and some garden tools…Since then he has bought new tools and trucks, and shared company ownership with Matt and Colette, but the vision is still the same; to build a team of truly outstanding people that will deliver amazing results every time. A team of professionals who could set the standard in any industry – we just happen to love landscaping. The outdoors, the hard work and the tangible results of our efforts are things we don’t want to live without. We are proud of what we do and enjoy handing over each project to our clients and witnessing how they share our pride in the outcome.
The reputation we’ve built and the referrals we get have propelled the Creative Roots team to be one of British Columbia’s leading landscape companies. We are guided by our insight and principles.
