How We Can Create Together:

Understanding Jordan’s Collaborative Vision for Leading Change

Jordan’s work starts with mindset change.

Many business leaders are familiar with the idea of an external consultant who comes in, assesses a problem, makes a recommendation … and then sends a bill.

My approach, by contrast, is inspired by that famous Albert Einstein quote: “we can’t solve our problems at the same level of thinking we used when we created them.”

Before we can see a new solution, we need to step outside of our old frame of reference, so we can re-evaluate the choices that are available to us. To paraphrase Einstein—no big deal—we need to see differently so we can solve differently.

Whether I work with teams or individuals, my work always begins by initiating this shift in mindset that will enable more innovative and effective solutions.

Outcomes that Jordan’s work creates

  • elevate your ability to engage as a leader

  • help your team become more compelling and creative

  • stop communicating in bullet points 😛

  • find more purpose and satisfaction

  • improve how you inspire and motivate others

  • innovate your business systems and mindsets to define a creative future

Develop new capabilities for your team.
