Training Services

Bob’s passion is growing leaders. He is at his best when working with a group of professionals to enhance their understanding and practice of great leadership. Bob works with corporate and government groups as well as academic graduate and undergraduate classes to share his wisdom and wit about how to thrive and grow in personal leadership. Bob offers several benefits to clients that are rarely found in consultants:

1. He has decades of experience in hands-on leadership roles to amplify his formal education, while many consultants have only the academic training. He understands the language and thinking processes of a senior leader because he has been there. He has hands-on senior leadership experience in manufacturing environments, both in the US and internationally.
2. He is flexible and will customize training content to fit a specific need rather than run a standard classroom training exercise. This flexibility includes venue, timing, focus, and outcome. All of these variables are laser focused on the need of the organization rather than a cookie cutter approach. He has over 100 different content areas.
3. Bob is passionate about this work. He has dedicated the next 25 years of his life to reaching as many leaders as possible to help improve their skills. This sincerity comes through in all of his interfaces.
4. He is well networked to the best contemporary minds in the field of leadership. His work has been published in leading journals on leadership such as “Leadership Excellence” and “T+D Magazine.”
5. He is currently serving as the Chairman of the National Leadership Development Team for The American Society for Training and Development.
6. Most of all, Bob is a service oriented consultant. He is easy to work with and focused on results rather than activities. One of his favorite sayings is, “It is not how many people you ‘put through’ a training activity that counts. It is how the training has transformed your organization.” 

Bob’s passion for training and teaching sparkles as students recognize his motivation is based on growing them as leaders. People who have worked with Bob in a training environment have rated him one of the best facilitators they have ever known.
