Bill Simmons Email & Phone Number

Leaders sometimes invert the org chart. I experienced this firsthand right out of college when the President of ServiStar taught me that leadership is about influence and serving others. Harry Hammond saw something in me I didn’t see in myself. From underperforming departments, stores needing a turn-around, or expanding growing parts of the business, I was challenged at every turn to lead people to higher expectations.He taught me there are moments when you’re in charge and moments when you challenge someone else to lead and you follow. I learned early that “being in charge” doesn’t make you a leader. Leading in a serving way creates a servant leader - a person who makes space for collaboration, opportunity, accountability, and, ultimately, team success. Any problem can be solved by working together.At Thrive, I’ve had the opportunity to partner with executives and teams from more than 50 companies in 35+ industries to help them achieve and execute their strategic goals. Not necessarily as the industry expert - that’s you. I’m the operational expert - the COO, the Integrator.I boost profits and decrease frustrations by building solid relationships, generating buy-in and decisive action to ensure the business runs smoothly and efficiently. From strategic planning and execution to people management and process optimization, clients routinely:⏵ Reduce operational errors 30-50%⏵ Realize cost savings of 15-25%⏵ Improve productivity 20-40%You can easily find someone to tell you 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 to do, but will they 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 you do it? Known as the “get sh*t done guy,” I’m the trusted partner who is with you and the team every step of the way, from strategy to implementation to results. In short, I:⏵ Create operational clarity. I don’t believe in “hacks.” I collaborate to establish clear processes, roles, and responsibilities, and make a lasting impact through strategy, systems, and people.⏵ Build self-sustaining teams. I teach teams to thrive independently of direct leadership by empowering people to design solutions and overcome operational roadblocks through creative problem-solving. At my core, I excel at communicating and motivating others. I’ve delivered 300+ speeches,, negotiated multi-million dollar deals, and turned around underperforming assets. Through every challenge, I aim to make a positive impact…on clients, the community, and the team.As for the rest of my story, I’m a family man and recovering workaholic. When I’m not solving business problems, you can find me at concerts, broadway shows, and sporting events.
