He is a graduate of Georgetown's Institute for Transformational Leadership and founded his company, Common Sense Leadership, which helps senior executives in business, as well as the academic and religious worlds, improve leadership, their own and their team's.

As a leader, our success comes from our helping others be great, and we must encourage ideas to flow up. He and his wife, Kerry, his best half, live in Glen Ellyn, IL and Charlevoix, MI.
