Jor-Dan Larocque Email & Phone Number

Hi! I'm Jor. I've been told I'm a natural born leader with killer instincts, insights and a unique ability to translate both into focused ideas, tangible action plans and processes. I'm also an Aries, the first of all the zodiac signs which means I have a terrible habit of being an amazing initiator of, well, everything under the sun. I opened a pub in my twenties. I'm proud of that. I sold it when I couldn't dance on the bar till 8am anymore. I've poured endless energy into countless other ideas and pursuits. Many have not seen the light of day. This is in some ways a form of torture for someone like me. The thing is when you're an 'ideas' person, they never stop. It's challenging to stay the course on a single pursuit. I'm working on this, tirelessly. I have 2 pet projects just about ready to launch that will provide me with a deep internal sense of relief! Whether they'll reach commercial success remains to be seen but the fact that they're going to make it to market, is remarkable! Starting, ideating, imagining, getting things mapped out, setting the course of action is my fortay. The execution part - I'm pretty okay at that too ;) but I've had to work at it, really hard. It takes incredible endurance to see a project through. My fire burns hot in the upfront stages and equally so at the end when all that planning is about to materialize itself into the real world. My strengths are undoubtedly in strategy, conceptual work and when I'm really in my zone, the development and commercialization of product (design, features, branding/packaging/pricing/marketing). That period of time where you get to take an idea and give it life. Make it a thing. Prepare to expose it to the world (or at least the sample audience you've identified in GA360). To paraphrase Joe Gardner from Disney's, Soul, "It's when I fail to see the time pass, get little goosebumps on my arms and feel most connected to my professional talent." Once that's been cracked, I rely on the stellar support of amazing teams to take the reigns and to run these projects through to the end zone. And don't be mistaken, these middle lots are just as critical to a project's success. This is in many ways where you make it or break it. I recognize the value in building trust on a team, so members are able to pass the baton as needed to tap into one another's strengths. So if you're looking for a leader who can self-reflect, an insatiable entrepreneurial spirit and the ability to mentor, motivate and trust teams...our stars might just be aligned.
