Having spent the early part of my career working for some of the worst bosses who ever walked the face of the earth, I made it my personal and professional mission to help make the world a better place...one leader at at time. And, to me, EVERYONE is a leader in one way or another. And my job is to help uncover and unleash that leader within. I do this through my consulting, training, coaching, teaching, speaking, and writing...and I look forward to doing that for you.

Let's see. Where to start? I am, by nature, what I call a "3 B's" guy: a Back-of-the-room, Behind-the-scenes, Bookworm. And, yet, I've somehow, over the years, overcome my extreme introversion to become a successful entrepreneur, public speaker, award-winning graduate school professor, and author. And, based on what I've learned, I enjoy showing others how they can become their best selves.
