Same guy in every room.

How I work

I get curious about people, tell them the truth, and help them become who they are.

What I believe

Seen Confident Decisive Performing

When people are seen for who they are, they get confident. Confident people make better decisions. Better decisions become better results.

The update

How I think

Passion and leadership make growth. Leadership and strategy create vision. Passion and strategy give you purpose. Where all three meet, you get confidence. And confident people make better decisions.

It started on my office whiteboard, and it's still how I look at a leader or a business.

How a conversation goes

First

"All right, tell me what's going on."

Then

I mostly listen, and I ask a lot of questions.

By the end

One encouragement and one thing to consider.

Things I say a lot

Context helps explain conduct.

Curiosity builds trust.

Present the solution, not the problem.

Don't be loyal to limitations.

But what are you learning?

That's how I work on both of the ways we can work together.

Tell me what's going on.

No pitch, no pressure. Send a note and I'll write back.
