For more than 30 years, I have advised and coached owners and leaders of small and mid-sized businesses—many of them family-owned—to achieve greater financial success and personal freedom. I work primarily with companies generating $2M–$20M in revenue with 10–150 employees, helping leadership teams clarify priorities, strengthen accountability, and build the operating discipline needed to scale their businesses. My clients come from a wide range of industries, including construction, landscaping, specialty manufacturing, business services, technology, and software. Many are seeking to 2–10x the value of their companies while building stronger leadership teams and more resilient organizations. My work combines leadership coaching, strategic facilitation, and practical operating frameworks to help companies: • put the right people in the right roles • implement effective systems and processes • establish clear priorities and measurable metrics • build cultures of accountability and performance I also specialize in family business succession, helping next-generation leaders successfully step into leadership while preserving family relationships and growing the enterprise. I have been certified in Scaling Up (Rockefeller Habits), Duct Tape Marketing, Value Builder, and The Growth Coach, and have extensive experience implementing EOS operating principles. I host the podcast The Disruptive Successor Show and authored the book Disruptive Successor: A Guide to Driving Growth in Your Family Business, based on my 7 Ps framework for building stronger family enterprises. My mission is to help family businesses thrive across generations and create lasting legacies.
