Landscape Management columnist and Aspire Software co-founder Kevin Kehoe joins Focal Pointe Outdoor Solutions’ board of directors. Focal Pointe Outdoor Solutions provides commercial and residential services in the Caseyville, Ill., area.

“Kevin joins our board at a transformative time in our history as we create a vision for the future, with clear objectives and a plan for achieving them,” said John Munie, Focal Pointe president, who founded the business in 1998. “I hired Kevin in 2010 as a consultant, and his impact on me and on our team was immediate and enduring. His level of thought, organization, and grit is unmistakable. He will be a difference-maker as we expand throughout the region.”

Focal Pointe — ranked No. 138 on the 2021 LM150 list with $15,675,000 in 2020 revenue — said this newly formed board of directors will work to improve the effectiveness of the organization’s leadership. Focal Pointe said the board of directors will also serve to guide the direction of the operation.

“I appreciate John’s collaborative approach and I’m pleased to take this next step together with him and his team,” said Kehoe. “As long as I’ve known John, he has run his company in a way that places great emphasis on the human experience. He’s competitive, but also wants to make a difference in people’s lives beyond the transactional. That’s something I can relate to, and that’s a culture I want to help the Focal Pointe team build throughout the Midwest.”
