John T. LaPerla has over 30 years experience in management, customer service and training management, both on the domestic and international fronts. He began his career as a pioneer of the financial services customer service center and as a liaison in the United Nations environment. He continued his career at a major firm on Wall Street and then spent many years in customer service management in the field of human resources information systems. He spent several years training major clients in customer service and software applications. He then used his keen ability to train others at the inception of the American operations of an Indian-based digital media company and was an integral part of a business consultation center, which received very positive feedback from a major client.

Leveraging his ability to train and educate, LaPerla has spent much of the last 12 years of his career as an adjunct professor. He has taught classes in management, business policy and strategy, as well as international business. He has been asked to speak by the American Society of Training and Development and at career development seminars at universities in the New York area.
