About Jeff

My mission is to enable yours.

No one wants to be the test lab for a consultant’s experiments and you shouldn’t either. You want your strategies realized. You need your people on board for change. 25 years’ experience gets you wisdom that works.

Been there, done that

An expert in accelerating change, Jeff guides corporate leaders to plan and implement successful change initiatives. Leaders discover how to ignite engagement, convert grudging compliance into deep commitment, and realize their strategic goals.

Based in Canada, Jeff is an international change leadership consultant, speaker, and author of two books in the domain of leading change.

For more than thirty years, beginning with a twelve-year career at IBM, Jeff has guided change projects by focusing on the people side of change. Clients, such as Bayer, BP, and The Salvation Army, have engaged him to achieve dramatic results during strategic transformation.

He holds a master’s degree in organizational psychology and is a Certified Change Management Professional. As CEO of a transformation services company, he grew it to seven figures in just five years.

Jeff and his family live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. When he isn’t traveling, you might find him driving a Zamboni at the local community arena.

“When we considered who could help us implement a major strategic shift in our organization, Jeff stood out as someone who could not only bring my ideas to life, but also help provide guidance to our leadership to make our service program real. We couldn’t have done it without him!”

~ Jennifer McCue, CEO Bethany Care Society
