My Story

Rocky Geans was the owner and president of L.L. Geans Construction Co., a 57-year old concrete contracting firm based in Mishawaka, Indiana, and as of December, 2016 Rocky closed the day to day operations of L.L. Geans to devote time to his passion of teaching and sharing. Rocky has 60 years of experience in concrete contracting, 30 of those as president of L.L. Geans. With the work ethic instilled by his father, who founded the company in 1959, Rocky’s organizational, management, and leadership skills guided the small construction company to a well-managed multi-million dollar firm.

Rocky is committed to giving back to the industry and helping others to be successful. He has served on many committees and boards of industry-related associations. Rocky created the American Society of Concrete Contractors Management Information eXchange (MIX) Groups, which has proved to be the number one member benefit of the ASCC.

Rocky was a Master Trainer and Craft Instructor certified by the National Center for Construction Education and Research from 2000 thru 2010. In 2006, Rocky created the Rocky Geans Concrete Construction Business School in partnership with The Concrete Network.

Rocky and his wife Janet live in South Bend, Indiana. He has three children: Danny, Scott and Lisa.

From Rocky: “Why do I consult and speak? If I can make a positive difference in someone’s life and/or business, it fills my emotional bank account. I absolutely love it when I hear back from those I’ve spoken to or worked with and heard that they got even one nugget that helped them”
