Jim Reilly

My corporate career involved three mergers and seven reorganizations which gave me a deeper understanding than most on the impact change can have on leadership, team, and valued customers.
A dynamic and professional telecommunications career in operations, sales, and project management for a New York based Fortune 100 technology company.
Managed and directed a technical sales team to support a $1.2B sales organization.
Recruited to support company post merger environment by aligning two sales organizations with product, service comparisons, organizational structure, and quality assurance.

Ideal client is one who recognizes the value of on-going leadership development for mid to upper level managers. Mid to large size organizations may have technically skilled managers who need to uncover hidden talent in their leadership abilities.

Yesterday’s leadership skills are not enough to handle tomorrow’s organizational challenges.
