Portrait of Frank Johnson.
““I believe that everyone has their own personal ‘zone of genius,’ that place where great passion meets innate talent. My unique gift is to awaken and encourage personal growth in others, so that they can discover their zone of genius for themselves.””
Uncovering potential
As a senior level Organizational Effectiveness Leader, I serve regional and national clients in the Hospitality, Tourism and Public Service sectors. My work as a leadership consultant is the culmination of 35+ years of practical experience leading businesses and non-profits. You can find my career highlights listed below.
It was along the way that I discovered my true calling for bringing out the potential in others.
I’ve trained in various leadership methodologies over the years, and I am continuously learning and adding to my toolbox as I discover new ways of engaging people and organizations.
And with that I gratefully acknowledge the leaders, thinkers, researchers and trainers who have helped me do what I do best.
