As a former U.S. Air Force combat pilot and the founder of Total Engagement Leadership, I specialize in transforming managers, professionals, and founders into high-performance leaders. My career has taken me from the cockpit to the boardroom, where I apply the same discipline, agility, and strategic thinking that are essential in world-dominant military aviation to world-class business leadership.With over two decades of experience leading winning teams in high-pressure, complex environments, I understand what it takes to make critical decisions, drive results, and inspire teams to perform at their best. Through Total Engagement Leadership, I leverage the principles of military leadership, the discipline of systems science, and the insights of business acumen to equip managers, professionals, and founders with the skills to lead high-performance teams that build world-class organizations and win in today’s dynamic and complex business world.The strength of the military is its middle layer--the company grade officers and NCOs that lead teams in the battlespace. Conversely, the middle management layer of corporations tend to be their weakness. I've developed the Five Fundamentals of Total Engagement--Purpose, Initiative, Leadership, Opportunity, and Tools (PILOT)--that form the foundation of leadership in team environments. It's my mission to strengthen the middle layer of our business organizations, and it's essential that we do so in this new era of all-domain global competition. Whether you’re managing a corporate team, running a startup, or looking to sharpen your leadership edge, I can help you build the skills you need to thrive.Let’s connect and explore how I can help you and your team achieve world-class excellence.
