Testimonial from Janet Peargin,
Manager, Global Health, Environment & Safety, Chevron:
"I hired Jon to help my team develop Chevron's global health strategy – a major initiative to “promote a healthy workplace and mitigate significant health risks” across the corporation. This project was challenging, with high visability, an array of global stakeholders, and broad, undefined, objectives and scope. Jon’s partnership was invaluable and I can't imagine delivering this project without his expertise as planner, facilitator, strategist and sounding board.

Jon brought several key strengths to the project.

• Skill in gauging team dynamics, as well as the insights, courage and ability to address tough issues to keep the team engaged and productive. 
• Ability to both think strategically and provide the detailed project plan to get there. 
• Expertise on change management to build support with executive management and gain collaboration across multiple businesses in the corporation.
• Willingness to roll up his sleeves to “get the job done.” Jon was good at synthesizing the team's input to create a high-quality, finished product.
• A calm and direct style that enabled him to work well with a variety of team members and stakeholders."

Testimonial from Bill Franklin,
Manager, Global Lubricants, Chevron:
"Jon is a terrific organizational consultant and I have repeatedly relied on him to help me and my teams deliver results across multiple projects at Chevron. He is flexible, organized, and has a knack for bringing together diverse individuals and inputs to “get it done”, despite ambiguity and difficult circumstances. Not only have I hired Jon to help deliver immediate results,  I’ve leveraged his coaching ability and interpersonal skills to build the long-term capability of my team members as well.  His skill as a facilitator and as a change management expert has made him a valued partner – one whom I’ve strongly recommended to others in the company. I look forward to working with Jon again."

Testimonial from Jeff Friant,
VP HR, Williams-Sonoma:
"Jon was instrumental in guiding the difficult implementation of a new competency
system across multiple regions within my organization. He combined strong
knowledge and consulting skills with an excellent business perspective –
his ability to understand our business helped smooth our implementation
of a “relevant” solution. Plus, Jon’s presence and insight allowed him to
work well with our Sr. VP as well as other Supply Chain leaders and
team members, including from other cultures. We couldn’t have
delivered without him!"
