His leadership career includes serving six years in the U.S. Navy, followed by a 20-year career that included operations leadership positions with Quaker Oats, General Mills and Coca-Cola Enterprises.

Key lessons from a career in leadership and coaching include the realization that leadership does not come naturally, but rather is the result of training, self-awareness, emotional intelligence, organizational commitment (culture) and effective coaching.  Being an effective leader can be very hard yet rewarding work, and organizational results depend on leadership effectiveness above all.
