A Silicon Valley / San Francisco Bay Area Career, Relationship & Life Coach, Meditation Instructor, Author, and Wisdom Circle Founder shares what he's up to

Leadership, Relationship & Career/Life Coaching -- Working with teens and adults who want to take bold new steps in their career, relationships, or spiritual growth:

Assisting people (by phone, email and in person) to fully enjoy their current life, while realizing dreams/goals/visions for their ideal life with greater forward action, clarity, enjoyment, learning and growth
Working with those who want to step up to leadership while playing a Bigger Game in their lives, communities, society, etc.
Coaching and teaching state-of-the-art methods to create balanced lives/careers aligned with personal beliefs and core values
Mentoring new coaches to become great coaches with a successful practice
Teaching coaching skills to teachers, parents and others who work with youth

Calling forth leaders around the world with "The Bigger Game" model and book

Addressing the crisis of leadership in the world
Proclaiming that everyone is a leader, with something invaluable to say and contribute
Giving you a step-by-step method for becoming a Gandhi or Martin Luther King with your dream
(rather than abdicating that power to our "so called leaders" - How well has that been working? ;-)
Co-authoring a book on this next-generation model for personal evolution, leadership, and social change

[I have spent over two years working with Laura Whitworth (co- founder of "The Coaches Training Institute" and author of the book Co-Active Coaching) and a select group of fellow coaches to refine the "The Bigger Game" model. The model is now mature, and I am currently working on the book, as a ghost-writer for Laura. I coach using this model for those who request it, and soon hope to be training other coaches and leaders in "The Bigger Game."]
