After selling my tech company in the late 1990's, I stepped into a transformative role as division President at the publicly-held acquiring firm. Under my leadership, a skilled sales team of 54, with five direct reports, achieved unprecedented results in competitive markets.Following this role, my career took an unexpected turn when my next boss was arrested in 2004 for the largest stock fraud in Washington State history. I soon discovered that I would serve 33-months in a federal prison sentence for a crime I didn’t knowingly commit. During this challenging time, I studied Cognitive Psychology and delved deeply into the research of blind spots that shaped my predicament and future endeavors.Later becoming a bestselling author of "Blind Spots - Why Good People Make Bad Choices" and co-author of four other influential books on Human behavior, I offer profound insights into leadership dynamics and decision-making. My expertise is recognized globally, underscored by my achievement of the CSP—Certified Speaking Professional designation—the highest recognition in the speaking industry.In 2016, I developed the Blind Spot Assessment, which has since gained global recognition with certified coaches spanning from North America to Australia. As co-founder and President of BSG Assessments, LLC (http://blindspotassessments.com), I lead the delivery of innovative assessment solutions for candidate screening, leadership development, and coaching. Our firm proudly operates as a minority-owned business.A recent highlight in my career is becoming a SHRM Recertification Provider, further enhancing our contribution to the continuous development of HR professionals.Let’s talk.
