Preface
I am an author and an expert when it comes to creating and living chapter 2 of your life. I’ll help you transform your business from the stagnant chapter 1 to a robust and vibrant chapter 2. I am also a business acceleration coach who helps people transform into superstar bosses, and their staff and customers love it.
Over the past seventeen years, I have intensely studied human behavior and the way business is conducted in many industries. My extensive business experience and education under many great mentors have taught me the value of systematic practice and study, especially when combined with hard work and commitment. I grew up on a farm in Southern Alberta, and through hard work and 4H, I learned what it meant to earn the things or experiences you want for yourself. That work ethic and my desire to be a top producer has always been with me throughout my journey. Every day I decide to be the best that I can be, and I help others to do the same. I have built a very diverse work resume that captures key roles that were part of an interesting growth sequence that developed my well-rounded perspective and capabilities. My number one interest was learning how to be a good boss, and how powerful it would be to help teach all bosses how to become people who treat employees with the respect they deserve.
My time and experience in business management can be summed up with four words.
Fear, Failure, Stagnation, Success
If you’ve been in business for some time or want to start, I’m sure you’ve also experienced one or more of these four outcomes. I’m sure you agree with me that success is the only desirable outcome of these four.
Since entering the workforce, I have worked for both privately owned companies and large, publicly traded corporations. The most important of these companies and roles are as follows:
1. Western Tractor Company Inc.: Territory manager for a privately owned dealer of John Deere
2. Fastenal Company: Branch manager, sales, manufacturing, and efficiency management
3. CAP Solar Pumps: International sales and marketing, product design, and manufacturing
4. Exterran: Oil and gas services, regional management and sales
I’ve held mostly management and sales roles since I was twenty years old. I was given those opportunities of leadership because I related very well with staff and the customer. As a leader, I learned to respect and understand that there are people wiser than me, and because of their experience, they could teach me how to grow and achieve huge results. Most people don’t know the value of having mentors and the time they can save you with people who can teach what works and what doesn’t. These powerful relationships I’ve formed and the track record I have built over the years continue to benefit me today.
During this period, I also spent a great deal of time and resources taking courses, studying books, going to seminars, and interviewing CEOs and managers from all walks of life, in search of information that the high achievers have figured out. Key mentors of mine who have made the largest impact are Anthony Robbins, Cloe Madanes, Dale Carnegie, Brendon Burchard, Napoleon Hill, Jack Canfield, Bob Proctor, Warren Buffet, Steven Covey, Robert Kiyosaki, Lou Holtz, and Lou Tice. There are many more, but these people have been some of the most notable in my life. Most important is my personal coach, Trevor McGregor. He is an outstanding leader who has helped me bring so many pieces of my journey to one solid center, and he’s supported me to be where I have risen to today. As my coach, he taught me, Success leaves clues.
I followed those clues until I learned how to apply the success principles that worked
