Led successful private, public, VC-backed, and PE-owned businesses for over 30 years.
Created billions in enterprise value across diverse business models, industries, maturity stages, and capital structures.
World-class expert in applying human behavior theory to help leadership teams work better together and achieve peak performance.
Serves as a director and advisor to boards, owners, and executive teams.
Founder and CEO of IntelliVen, a consulting firm providing tools, methods, and tutorials for leaders building, growing, and transforming organizations—as detailed in his book.
Guided firms such as Compusearch (now Unison) from $15M/yr to now valued in excess of $2B, and helped scale Contraqer (now Unanet), Aquilent (now Booz Allen) and Touchstone (now DXC).

These experiences—scaling companies, developing leaders, and working with boards—revealed patterns of success not taught in school or found in books. I codified those patterns into a practical system called Manage to Lead (MtL), which I now teach to help others lead more strategically, align their teams, and accelerate growth—on purpose.

Teaching and helping others grow has always been central to who I am—from camp counselor and team leader to CEO and advisor. MtL is my way of sharing what I’ve learned to help others perform and grow with clarity and confidence.
