Thank you to Ward and Smith, P.A. for including our Founder and CEO, John Cooper, as a panelist at their 2026 Construction Conference at the StateView Hotel on June 4. Joining him on the panel was Ty Edmondson, CEO of T.A. Loving Company, with the conversation moderated by Hank Harris of Ward and Smith Business Consulting.
The conference was designed to offer practical and legal guidance for contractors, developers, and construction professionals, with discussions covering industry challenges, risk management, AI, employee recruitment, and leadership in construction.
While John shared insight on several topics, one of his key messages focused on the people and leaders who work at Cooper Tacia. As he told the audience, “You can't build a company without the people.” That belief is reflected in the way we continue to invest in our employees through profit sharing, recognition, education, training, and leadership development. John was quick to acknowledge that Cooper Tacia would not be where it is today without the people who show up every day and help move the company forward.
So thank you to our employees who make a difference across every part of our company, from leadership, field operations, project management, and estimating to marketing, business development, accounting, and beyond.
We do this together!
