Today’s political, social, and economic climate makes it more difficult than ever for organizations to balance sustained performance with a healthy working environment. Organizations with great leadership teams are much more likely to maintain this important balance.

 
 

About the author, Jack McGuinness…

 

I have 35 years experience working with leadership teams at organizations big and small across multiple industries. After serving with the U.S. Army’s 10th Mountain Division, I helped build a successful boutique management consulting firm where I served as COO for 13 years. I was also the CEO of a contract packaging company, where I developed a passion for unleashing the leadership capacity of teams throughout an organization.

All of this experience - leading a platoon at 22, learning how to be a management consultant from an amazing mentor, working together with him figure out how to build a unique firm, and running and ultimately winding down a packaging company - has provided me with an interesting perspective and a great deal of empathy for leaders trying to lead in today’s challenging times. My commitment is to help them become the leaders they need to be to build great leadership teams; ones that productively accelerate their organizations.

In 2009 I joined forces with Gil Brady, a West Point classmate and just the most authentic person I know to form Relationship Impact, a consulting firm focused on working with CEOs to unleash the potential of their leadership teams. I can honestly say that it is the most challenging and fulfilling work I have ever done and I owe the world to Gil for helping me build on my disciplined approach with a bit more empathy and compassion.

I hope you enjoy BUILDING GREAT LEADERSHIP TEAMS and are able to take one or two insights back to your organizations! Please reach out at jmcguinness@relationship-impact.com if you would like to learn more.
