About

Board Member/executive/entrepreneur who really enjoys building great teams, organizations and products for the automotive, food & beverage, coffee and education industries. Promoting integrative approaches that work in both for-profit corporations and not-for-profit organization. Through building unity of vision and purpose, facilitating unified thought, supporting a culture of accompanying one another in unified action a sustainable process oriented organization comes into being and intended, as well as unforeseen outcomes emerge. To do this we find the right people and accompany them, promote a humble posture of learning and make sure the right balance of "doing" and "being" is constantly preserved - these are some of ways that I help an organization and movement thrive. As Peter Gabriel so powerfully put it in his song Fourteen Black Painting: From the pain come the dream From the dream come the vision From the vision come the people From the people come the power From this power come the change
