Jim serves leaders who are striving to reach the next level of success. Maybe they’re stuck on a problem or find themselves in a new role. Perhaps they’re looking for a promotion, or more fulfillment in their current position. Some are just starting out and intuitively know that it’s better to start out right. Others have reached massive levels of success, but simply feel empty…like there must be something more.
Many of Jim’s clients secretly yearn to reinvent themselves–knowing they are not doing what they were made to do. They are almost ready to make that jump, but need to know they have their bases covered before they do.
I work with leaders who are already great, and realize they are destined to become legendary.
Leaders know they are at risk for not fulfilling their purpose—and they fear they might not live up to their true potential. Yet, they are highly intelligent, creative, and driven, so they keep trying no matter what. Most say to me, “It’s time to try something different, but I’m not sure what that is. Can you help me open the next chapter of my leadership story?”
Jim’s clients face real—but winnable—struggles. Jim helps them turn struggle into success. They are losing battles they are supposed to win. But also, they might be missing battles they were uniquely created to fight and win as well. They need a guide for the leadership journey, and together we work on winning the struggle, getting unstuck, and achieving even more.
When I am not coaching, speaking or consulting
I love being outdoors. I have always had a passion for being outside. Hiking, fishing, camping, surfing, mountain bike riding, and taking photos (Red Fox Studio) just to name a few. Growing up on the Central Coast of California created a special connection with the ocean. Twenty years in Colorado created a special connection with the mountains and open plains.
I had the unique opportunity to travel the globe, and at some point realized that I was focused so much on my work, that I was passing once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to see the world. I committed to extending my trips and including something unique in my trips. This led to adventures like spending time with the Mountain Gorillas of Rwanda, surfing in Australia, visiting the Mayan ruins in Tikal, Guatemala, or doing a charity trek to summit Kilimanjaro in Tanzania as part of a new program called “Blood, Sweat and Compassion.”
