About

John is an Exponential Advisor who helps leadership avoid the Kodak moment that Peter Diamandis refers to in his book “Bold”. Peter shares how Kodak invented the very technology that disrupted their business. The industry Kodak pioneered and dominated for years continues to grow at an exponential rate, yet the leadership team at Kodak failed to exploit this explosive growth and rapidly descended into bankruptcy.

We are in a time of unprecedented disruption and opportunity. Attending Abundance 360 since its launch at Singularity University, Peter has challenged us to either be the disrupter or the disrupted. Initially when exposed to his challenge I didn’t see how it would affect me. I could see how the auto industry would be disrupted with autonomous vehicles and electric propulsion, but my business won't suffer that same fate, or will it? After years of repeated exposure I began to see how I would be disrupted by fast growth technologies such as AR, VR, and AI. That a future advisor enhanced with AI could support clients like the character “Data” from Star Trek, providing 10X more value. Initially fearful of this potential disruption, I began to envision the opportunity to create my own MTP and Moonshot to serve millions of people by creating transformative value. When I attended the Birthing of Giants 25 years ago at MIT I met Verne Harnish and was struck by how insightful this thought leader was and signed on to be his first coach long before he had written his book or created the now hugely impactful Gazelles program serving millions of business leaders and companies. Six years ago after meeting Peter Diamandis I committed the next 25 years to adapt Peter’s teaching. In order to be successful in the future you too must commit to immersing yourself and your leadership team to think exponentially. If you want to be the disrupter and not the disrupted contact us today for more information on our Exponential Mindset workshop and unlock your exponential future.
