John M. Sklenar is founder and President of The Premier Companies, a group of companies specializing in taxation, estate and retirement transition planning.

Sklenar is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Personal Financial Specialist (PFS), and Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP) CFP logo.  Because of this unique combination, they are able to offer a breadth of knowledge and experience that most advisors don't have.

John M. Sklenar received his B.S. with honors from Northwest Missouri State University in Accounting and Business Management in 1974.  John received the Clifford Kensinger award, given to a top accounting student.  Since then, he has been working in the accounting and consulting business, serving business, professional and senior clients transitioning into or in retirement.
 

Sklenar entered the financial planning business when he realized that the clients of his CPA firm were poorly served by financial planners.  Few clients ever received any planning…most planners want to simply sell a product.  Consequently, Sklenar saw that most people end up with no plan, the wrong plan, the wrong investments and necessary documents were not prepared.  His passion was fueled by the untimely death of his father, leaving his mother without the means to cope.  His firm developed a system to provide complete planning services economically. Their motto is "Doing What Other Advisors Neglect To Do."™ 

John is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Iowa Society of Certified Public Accountants.  He has been an active volunteer, serving on numerous boards, including two appointments by the Governor of Iowa to the Iowa Accountancy Examining Board, serving as chair of the Ethic Committee.  He was also selected as an Outstanding Young Man by the United States Jaycees in 1977. He is a member of the National Ethics Bureau and the Better Business Bureau of Iowa.

John lives in Carroll, Iowa with Virlee, his wife and partner in business.  They have a son, Nick who is employed by the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation.  He and his wife, Jacky, have two sons, Jackson and Nolan.  John and Virlee also have a daughter, Josie, who is a hair stylist in Tampa, Florida and is married to Cody Ehlers, a semi-pro baseball player.
