John Spence

For more than 28 years I have traveled upwards of 200 days-a-year worldwide helping businesses and people be more successful. I assist my clients through training, business coaching and as a keynote speaker and workshop facilitator in the areas of leadership, high-performance teams, organizational culture, and strategic planning. I have worked for numerous Fortune 500 firms, small to medium-sized businesses, and professional associations and have built my entire career on making complex business ideas simple and actionable.

How have I earned the credibility to do this sort of work? Here is a little bit of my background.

At 26 I was the CEO of an international Rockefeller foundation, overseeing projects in 20 countries. Just two years later Inc. Magazine named me one of America’s Up and Coming Young Business Leaders. I have also been recognized as one of the Top 100 Business Thought Leaders in America, one of the Top 100 Small Business Influencers in America, one of the Top 50 Small Business Experts in America and one of the top 500 Leadership Development Experts in the World. The American Management Association named me one of America’s Top 50 Leaders to Watch along with Sergey Brin and Larry Page of Google and Jeff Bezos of Amazon. I was also shortlisted by the highly prestigious Thinkers50 as one of the top eight in the world for their Distinguished Achievement Award.
