About John
“Remember this. Hold on to this. This is the only perfection there is, the perfection of helping others. This is the only thing we can do that has any lasting meaning. This is why we're here. To make each other feel safe.” – Andre Agassi
While it may seem strange that this section starts with a quote by a tennis player, the quote captures my motivation and passion. My career has been in the service of others. While admittedly terrible at tennis, I have served in the US Navy, managed teams in the semiconductor industry, led and consulted on large cross-functional change initiatives in the pharma industry, and founded a consulting practice.
With a little humor, a lot of empathy, understanding, and hard work, I like to think I can help people think through and deliver on their most important changes.
I hold a Master’s degree in Organizational Development from the University of San Francisco and I am a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt. I maintain an ongoing curiosity about change and how organizations and individuals can make the most of changes in a constantly evolving world.
