Internet Program Manager for Worldwide Training

As a business growth strategist, author, and former Apple exec, I facilitate a 90 day process that transforms overwhelmed managers into admired leaders who are eager to grow the business and develop their team/dept/division.

What’s Going On
😖  Have you noticed that the regular tempo of productivity you rely on has taken unexpected dips and dives?

😖  Are you under pressure to produce growth while you’re barely getting by each week, performing heroic saves, yet unable to get to the longer-range planning & strategic steps?

😖  Are you surprised at all that your direct reports have not stepped up to claim more responsibility? Are you wondering who is interviewing for other opportunities?

💥  Senior managers – especially in the high tech, privately held firms that I work with –  want to see improvements in the business operations, processes, and relationships improve, not just suffer and endure.

💥  Business leaders are struggling to right the ship. Without an approach that addresses the underlying causes, behavior change initiatives fail more than 70%. 

💥  Half-hearted efforts produce not just poor results, but perhaps backlash from your people. It doesn’t have to be that way. 


When We Work Together
📈   You get the levels of engagement that are good for morale and measurable via market growth, reduced costs, improved profit margins, and lower turnover.

💪 You can see results for yourself in 2-weeks. 

👊  Stop settling for results that are below what you know your people are capable of producing.

👊  Escape the trap of solving your manager's problems and give them the support to become more effective.

What Other Senior Leaders Say
💬  "I highly recommend Bill for any company who is looking for a talented person to help them with things such as marketing strategies, product positioning, company presentations, and overall good judgment regarding personnel and the organization.”
Bret Dunlap, CEO/President • Advanced Mobile Solutions

💬   “Whenever I was stuck, I knew Bill would be able to listen, ask a few questions, and come up with insights that really made a difference, whether it was with a strategy decision, go-to-market opportunity, or de-risking a new venture. Bill is an invaluable asset to any technology leader.”
Nitin Khanna, CEO • Archer Insights

Team Leader

❓ Is your business running you instead of the other way around?
❓ Are you stuck working 70+ hours because your team keeps handing problems back to you?
❓ Do you want to step back, but you're worried everything will fall apart if you're not there?

If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. Most trades business owners never get the right tools to build a leadership team that can truly run the business without them.

The Real Problem Isn’t Just Delegation—It’s Leadership.
A self-sustaining team doesn’t happen by accident. Without the right structure, accountability, and leadership development, you’ll always be the one putting out fires, chasing people down, and solving every problem yourself.

👉 What’s Keeping You Stuck?
🚧 Your managers and foremen aren’t truly leading—they’re still relying on you for every decision.
🚧 There’s no clear accountability system—so things get missed, and you have to step in.
🚧 Your team isn’t fully bought in—which means you’re dealing with high turnover or disengaged employees.

What If Your Business Ran Smoothly Without You?
Imagine being able to step back from daily operations without worrying if jobs are getting done right. Imagine having a leadership team you actually trust—one that makes decisions, solves problems, and keeps everything running without you constantly checking in.

That’s exactly what I help trades business owners do through my Empowered Leadership Intensive.

✅ We’ll clarify roles and responsibilities so your team knows exactly who is accountable for what.
✅ We’ll train your managers to lead—so you’re not the bottleneck in your business.
✅ We’ll install an accountability system that keeps everyone on track (without you micromanaging).

Real Client Wins:
🔹 Thomas (Advanced Roof Solutions) went from being a field worker to fully stepping into his CEO role, building a leadership team that he trusts to handle operations.
🔹 Karl (CR-Systems) restructured his team, clarified roles, and hired the right leadership so he could focus on growth instead of day-to-day management.
🔹 Other clients have cut their work hours significantly, finally taken real vacations, and built teams that handle problems without them.

👉 If you’re ready to finally step back and let your team take ownership, send me a message. Let’s chat about what’s keeping you stuck and how we can fix it.
