Board of Advisors

A word about these individuals from Dr. Jim Dyke…

These are men who have served as mentors and advisors to me — providing business direction, professional advice, and personal encouragement. They are seasoned and experienced professionals in the areas of management and leadership; executive performance; organizational development; human and organizational psychology; and executive coaching.

They are also men of wisdom and insight! I value their opinions; I admire their character; I aspire to achieve their level of success; and… I treasure their friendship.

Their breadth and depth of experience have informed much of the work that I do and have provided an added dimension of depth in content; strategic applications of learning theory; and practical wisdom in organizational and corporate culture.
