About the Author

Work should be good… people should go home feeling like their effort made a difference. The best way for me to make that happen is to improve the supervisory skills of front-line leaders. I hope people see their work in a new way after I’ve worked with them.
My schooling was eclectic: systems design engineering, resource economics, and divinity. My work has been eclectic too; mining, steel, yacht design, pump repair, government agencies, consulting and more. And I’ve trained almost 1,000 supervisors.
