It can't be easy to be County Manager, but John makes it look easy. Always upbeat and positive, he is the most encouraging boss I've ever had! John is quick to acknowledge accomplishments and truly manages from the heart. He is approachable, amiable and unfailingly courteous to his employees. He's a strong leader who relies on the spirit of cooperation and a foundation of mutual respect rather than intimidation. I feel I am fortunate to work at Fidelity National Title and especially fortunate to work for John Killen.

John Killen is one of the BEST County managers that I have worked with in over
30 years in the Title and Escrow Industry. He is truly caring about all of his Fidelity Employees. He is even tempered and has an open door policy to clients along with employees. John is always willing to take the time to listen to us with an open mind and thinks out side the box. This makes all of our working lives more tolerable and makes us want to work harder because of this. He listens to problems and offers good fair solutions.

John Killen has been my County Manager for over 8 years. Under his management, I have seen John grow both the Title Plant and our Escrow operations here in Santa Clara County. He has the respect of all of the employees, which translates into retaining quality Escrow Officers, Assistants, Title employees and Account Executives.

He makes himself available and actively listens to and helps us stay focused on getting and retaining business. He always has a positive attitude and is great at helping me find a solution for every situation that I bring to him. As an Account Executive, that is a great comfort to me knowing that I have a Manager who values his employees.
