ABOUT ME

AND MY TOOL BOX

BOUNCING LIKE A CAPITALIST IS ALL ABOUT IDEAS AND ACTIVATION

I will position my client companies and organizations for accelerated success.

I use my experience gathered over decades to assist executives in meeting their operational goals and their financial objectives.

I creatively approach a project; maximizing best practices, facilitating and driving valued results.

I use “my superpowers” for good with my clients and my "gifts and treasures” for my non-profit board work.

My clients introduce me as the “capitalist” in the room. This started as a joke and a compliment. I focus on the money because with revenue comes profit and a the ability to do mission.

Working with my clients is like "bowling" – think of the bumpers on the bowling alley – we will aim for a strike which we might get - but you won’t get a gutter ball!

Let's BOUNCE, I love this work! I will love working with your business too.

PS: And we will have some FUN!

HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL RESEARCH

Research is showing CEOs and EDs are blending freelance consultants and full-time employees at an accelerated rate. Harvard Business School’s Project on Managing the Future of Work with BCG found 90% of companies see the advantage of this work blended work model. This strategy is often cost effective and provides flexible, tenured, resilient talent. After over 10 years of Bouncing, my research shows it works too! Let’s blend a team!
