A more traditional CV for some street cred, my personal bio: In brief, I am a startup founder, turnaround specialist, and former CEO with specific expertise in building national teams and enterprises and the underlying processes that create excellence and (hopefully) extraordinary internal teams and the leaders that lead them.  I coach high functioning people to become more aligned with themselves.  I train and teach others to lead with excellence. 

Since 1993, I have served as CEO or President of regional or national companies in digital media, manufacturing and distribution as well as pioneering the consolidation of fragmented industries.  As Founder and CEO of a national consolidation platform roll-up in digital media, my team raised more than $15MM in common and preferred stock, pioneering a wave of mergers and acquisitions in the market segment, and built a portfolio of national suppliers to providing a more scalable and efficient model to serve our clients such as Nike, The Home Depot, Verizon Wireless and other brands.  The company was sold to an investor in 2005. 

Since 2006, I have co-founded two additional companies, one social media and digital marketing agency and one e-commerce platform in the apparel industry.  Building internal teams in early stage enterprises as well as creating high caliber, high functioning leaders with my co-founders has been a critical focus as this is sometimes the most singularly difficult challenge an enterprise can face during growth and scale. 

What my clients say: 

"Several of my colleagues mentioned they had career coaches who were very helpful either to build their careers or with career transitions. Coincidentally, these messages came at a time when I was at a crossroads in my own career. I wanted to leave the team I helped build and worked on for the past 10 years to re-invent my career.  Glenn’s co-active coaching style gave me the tools I needed to have clarity identifying career opportunities. He set clear expectations, helped me frame career options, kept me focused, on-track and motivated. "

 Glenn pointed out how the personal and professional sides are intertwined and having a holistic view allows me to show up with more authenticity. This awareness helps me to make better long term decisions." -- Laverne Masaki, Executive Recruiter, Global Talent Acquisition, Microsoft Corporation.

"Working with Glenn has been invaluable for my professional and personal life. Using a mixture of practical advice, inspirited insights, and deep wisdom, Glenn helped me make a major career shift and shape a new business which better reflects my ideals and my talents. I literally wouldn't be the person I am today if I hadn't worked with Glenn." -- Elizabeth Hughes, MD.  Princeton, UVA, Stanford University.
