Stephen Simms

Experience Working As A Leader In Organizations:

Stephen Simms is a Certified FocalPoint Business Coach, Trainer, Facilitator and Speaker with over thirty years of corporate leadership experience. His leadership experience began at the young age of 13 when he managed a concession stand in a skating rink. The company he worked for lost the contract and Stephen negotiated to remain as the concession stand manager and ensured continued employment for his co-workers as well. The new company was pleased to offer him the role and it was only later during the paperwork signing that they were shocked to learn of his young age. From that moment forward, Stephen has been leading teams from 100 to over 4,000 as a Senior Vice President with a Global Fortune 500 company. He has worked with teams all over the world and has had the good fortune to continually grow in his leadership skills through access to fantastic mentors and coaches.
