Introducing Henry Thompson

Introducing Henry Thompson

I want you to meet Henry Thompson, our field supervisor.  Henry’s job has several responsibilities.  He manages the production of projects, including pre-construction planning and scheduling, as well as material procurement and logistics for the Blue Crew.   He checks in regularly with customers and the on-site foreman to ensure the project meets our quality standards for both craftsmanship and customer experience.  Communication is our #1 core value, and Henry helps keep everyone on the same page by communicating expectations for both our team and our clients.  Henry is also responsible for the continual coaching and development of our field installation and maintenance teams. 

A Very Experienced Landscaper 

Henry started a landscaping job as a laborer.  He quickly worked his way up from laborer to the foreman of his own crew.   

In 1996, Henry decided to move into management.  He worked his way up to field supervisor.  Henry has been working in the landscaping industry for thirty years and has experience with every aspect of construction and landscaping.    

Coming to Royal Creations Architectural Landscaping 

In a funny coincidence, I worked with Henry as an intern 25 years ago.  In 2018, I called Henry after he had been following us on Facebook for years and commented on a post of ours. 

When I called him, Henry said, “You are doing a good enough job now for me to work for you.”   

“Funny you should mention that.  I called to ask you to join the team,” I told him.  The rest is history. 

Why Landscaping? 

Henry started working in landscaping right out of high school.  He loves working outside.  His favorite thing is turning a yard into an outdoor oasis.  Henry likes to bring the countryside to people living in the city so they can enjoy their outdoor living areas and landscape, as he has his whole life as an outdoorsman. 

Hometown Boy 

Henry was born in Harrisonville, Missouri, and now lives in the small town of Archie, Missouri, about ten miles south of where he was born.  He enjoys small-town (about 4,000 people) life and likes knowing everyone in town. 

Other Interests 

Henry has a passion for spending time outdoors, hunting, and fishing when he isn’t working.  Anyone who knows him knows his favorite activity is attending his daughters’ sporting events with his wife Mindy.  Their oldest girl, Emma, has started college this year and is concentrating on her academics and classes in accounting.  His youngest, Elizabeth, is a freshman in high school and plays basketball and volleyball.  She competes in a competitive league outside of school as well.  Most weekends during the season, Henry can be found chauffeuring her to meets around the state.  He sure is proud of his girls!
