Making Businesses Better
Hi, I’m Jim! I do one thing, make businesses better. I’m like you having been in your position or role, I have a pragmatic approach that delivers results and I’m scalable in that I see the big picture along with the details.
Let’s get to work together making your business better.
My Background
I’m a proven business leader and executive. Working within organizations from startup to multi-national in size, I’ve consistently delivered great results to sales, business development, general management and operations, private equity, environmental and sustainability initiatives—from strategic direction to tactical execution.
I’ve held positions such as Owner, Partner, Entreprenuer, VP-Sales and Marketing, Chief Marketing Officer, Sr. VP – Business Development and Marketing, VP – Construction Solutions, Senior Director – Sustainability, Director of Industrial Services, Director of Petrochemical Sales, VP and General Manager – Industrial Services and Divisional Operations Manager.
I’m also a Sandler Sales Training graduate, hold a Lean Six Sigma Certificate (from Villanova University), am a former Professional EOS Implementer, and also hold a Masters Degree in Business Administration.
It is this unique set of qualifications that contributes to my clients in helping them Blueprint, Build, Bridge and Coach their businesses into a better future.
My Unique Characteristics
I Make Business Better. Period.
I bring over 40 years of business improvement “from the shop floor to the top floor,” across businesses of all sizes and stages of maturity, improving people, process and effectiveness every step of the way.
I'm Like You.
I’m human, too. I’ve owned and operated varioius businesses. I’ve worked with direct and extended teams to accomplish great things. I’m a serial entrepreneur who has seen success and, yes, failure. And, I’m an individual contributor, manager and leader as my clients need me to be.
I Have a Pragmatic Approach.
I’m known to avoid overcomplicating things, simplifying strategy, process and operational capability to make better business easier to achieve. I’m hands-on, applying my experiences in a direct, simple, practical and logical manner focused on driving high time, energy and investment ROI.
I'm Scalable.
Having successfully worked my way up from the shop floor and field operations to executive leadership, I easily scale to the business challenge. Similarly, because of numerous cross-company, cross-functional and cross-industry experiences I can easily scale by seeing the big picture to what needs to be done today to execute at the ground level.
