The stakes are high!

You’re on an important mission. You’ve got people to serve and an impact to make in the world.

But your team isn’t performing at the level you know they could.

Unhealthy conflict (or conflict avoidance). Office politics and silos keep the team from collaborating effectively.

Miscommunication, mediocre performance and general disengagement are keeping you and your team stuck in the status quo.

You can have a high performing team.

What if your team was equipped with communication skills that efficiently resolved conflicts? Motivated action? Aligned the team around the highest priorities?

What if, instead of hunkering down in their silo’s and hanging out in unproductive meetings, your team learned how to truly collaborate?

And what if that collaboration drove meaningful innovation, quickly solving your biggest challenges and serving the needs of your customers?

And you can take action, today.

I'm here to help.

Hi! I’m Jeff.

I’ve helped dozens of teams reach their full potential, unlocking innovation and creativity that was buried under layers of unresolved conflicts, unclear expectations and unknown agendas.

We’ve done that by taking a simple, highly practical (and immediately operational) approach to leadership learning and development. We’ve cut through all the noise to the essential elements of effective leadership…power, motivation and communication. That’s it.

I work with leaders and teams of professionals who are dedicated to increasing employee engagement, building their leadership capacity and achieving incredible results.

Jeff has a deep understanding about how teams work best together. As a leader, he has a vision for tending to the structure of teams in ways that bring out the strengths of each member, while simultaneously focusing everyone on shared goals. He also knows that sustainable and effective teams must have more than tasks, deadlines, and to-do lists. Accordingly, he always aspires to nurture a team-centered culture that makes attaining the collective vision an enriching and meaningful experience.

Jeff came in to help our team and organization at Brown Bagging for Calgary’s Kids at a time when we were going through some difficult growing pains. His approach was people centred while guiding a clear and strategic path that acknowledged the growth and helped us become a more effective and efficient organization.
