Making a Manager's Job Easier—Without Working Harder
Speaker | Author | Recovering CPA
TRUSTED BY
I’m a partner at PeopleWorks International in Dallas, TX, where I head our leadership development practice. In addition to this role, I co-authored "The Edge: How to Stand Out by Showing You’re All In" and co-host the "How to Lead" podcast with my close friend, Clay Scroggins.
My mission is simple: to bring dignity back to managing. Mid-level managers are the backbone of every organization, yet they’re often overworked and under-supported. They deserve better—and I’m here to help make that happen.
Managers can simplify their work without extra effort. Today’s managers don’t need more to do; they need effective strategies to handle the challenges of being 'at the center of it all,' not just 'in the middle.'
Married since 2003, I’m a proud father of two boys and a cherished dog. A Clemson University grad, I also hold a quirky "Ducktorate Degree" from Disney University (yes, it's real, but no, it's not a big deal). And let's not forget, I’m a recovering CPA, which fully explains why, other than playing golf, I generally prefer to be indoors.
Do you have a rising star on your team?
The Edge is My Latest Book
The Edge was written as a cheat sheet for an emerging leader's career. It contains a simple, four-part framework describing what senior leaders desire from their team.
If you have a talented team of young professionals but find it difficult to obtain the outcomes you desire, or to retain these employees, or If you have ever felt the slightest bit of frustration with the younger team members in your organization, then this resource is for you.
