About
I am passionate about building management teams that allow the owner or President to focus on the strategic aspects of running the business rather than the day-to-day operations. Helping others to achieve a balance between their personal and professional life is a goal that I can relate to having worked in both large corporations and started my own businesses.
I have been a member of the International Coach Federation (ICF) since 1999 and have earned their highest designation of Master Certified Coach. The ICF has over 25,000 members of which 8,000 are certified and only 600 are Master Coaches.
In 1994 I purchased and managed the first Renaissance Executive Forums franchise for CEO Peer groups, facilitating over 850 forum meetings and leading over 2,500 individual or group coaching sessions. Prior to that I was active in real estate development, first with the Irvine Company and then as President of my own building firm for 18 years where we built over 1,000 homes in southern California, many of them winning awards for innovation and design.
In 2011 I started a weekly Internet radio show bringing together CEOs, coaches, and human resource professionals to discuss best practices and current issues, The Coaching Perspective Radio Show.
I frequently speak to groups on coaching topics and am a motivational speaker for business groups. I have taught courses at UCI Irvine. I have been a member of the Board of Directors of Storm Industries Inc. since 2004 and am Chairman of the Compensation Committee and a member of the Real Estate Committee. I am also a member of the Board of Director for L & S Construction who specializes in sewer, storm drain, and water pipeline installation in Southern California.
The only way to know if I am the right fit for your coaching needs is for us to talk, I look forward to hearing from you.
