Expert Strategy & Coaching to Grow Your Business

Leadership consultants come with their models and the hope is that their "shoe" is a fit for your "foot." Tom is a "master cobbler."

He listens well. He not only actively listens to the words coming out of your mouth but he listens to what you are saying.

Tom also has an uncanny ability to tie together thoughts, concepts, issues, opportunities and then give them back to his clients in tasks and tools that you can apply. His extensive leadership development experience in very a diverse palate of communities and organizations and jobs means that he has either been in your shoes before or helped someone in a very similar spot. I'd highly recommend him to help you fit your "glass slipper."

I have known Tom since 2000.

He has proven himself as someone who is dedicated to his job, his family, and community. His solid character is evident in how he approaches others. He has proven himself as a strong leader and a become successful as a very competent nonprofit executive.

I eagerly endorse Tom. He is an asset for any organization

Dennis McMillian, Philanthropy Advisor & Organizational Consultant

Our team was stuck. We had a desire to accomplish more of our goals, lead at a higher level, and do a better job of sharing responsibility, resources, and relationships that would move our mission forward. Tom’s leadership of the StratOp process helped us get unstuck.

The process unleashed collaboration, commitment, and helped us connect the dots between different parts of our mission. This tool is changing how we work for the better.

In 20 years of building teams and mobilizing mission I’ve never experienced one tool as profoundly transformative.

Tom’s facilitation was one of the highlights of the process. He embodies what Jim Collins would call, ‘level 5 leadership’, that is a paradoxical blend of personal humility and indomitable will. Tom was able to draw out those who were struggling, lead us through conflict, and keep the team focused until we had the kind of clarity needed to move forward.

Jason Gaboury, OPA InterVarsity

Tom's facilitation was key to pushing our business farther.

Working with Thrive Hound brought our team closer together and focused our attention on how to make real progress.

RWL now has the tools to review, plan, and implement our goals. We've used the StratOp process to grow year over year.
