Fun Fact #1: Once upon a time, Jim was a working actor where he learned to actively listen more than speak, to interpret a script so the audience could draw their own conclusions, and to tell stories that moved the listener.

Now Jim uses those skills to engage people in order to make their businesses better. Jim has helped thousands of people think differently.

Fun Fact#2: Jim was the first Disney Facilitator our company brought to Canada to deliver the fist ever in the world sponsored three day Disney Summit.
