Management consultant specializing in economic and
social research, strategic and business planning; change management; organizational
effectiveness; policy development; and project management in small, medium
and large private and public organizations.
BSA, Agricultural Economics, University of Manitoba, Jim brings over 30 years of senior executive experience to his consulting
practice, helping clients achieve their goals. Analysis of the reasons
for past and current situations, including relevant external factors,
provides a basis for projecting future trends, essential for designing
effective organizations with clear direction needed to meet the challenges
of change. Having developed his research skills at the University of
Michigan, he has applied them with success in the fields of agriculture,
regional development, northern infrastructure, industrial development
and management.
Complementing this research capacity, Jim has been CEO of large organizations,
several with staff numbering between 2500 and 7500. Knowing and understanding
the difficulties facing CEO's in this changing world, he uses this experience
and understanding to provide advice and results of direct use and benefit
to clients. Understanding the difficulties inherent in keeping open
and effective communications in organizations, he listens to concerns,
provides analysis and develops solutions to effectively address issues.
Negotiation is often necessary to achieve organizational goals, and
Jim has advised private and public sector clients on a wide range of
sensitive negotiations. Examples include the development of many federal-provincial
agreements and their subsequent implementation, negotiation for new
national parks and historic sites and aboriginal input to the Constitution
Act, 1982.
Jim has lead many special federal, provincial and multilateral task
forces to investigate and report on sensitive issues of social and economic
significance. He chaired the UNESCO World Heritage Committee for two
terms, during the sensitive consideration of certain proposed sites,
including Auschwitz, Australia's Queensland Rain Forest and the Panda
Reserves in China.
For the last 10 years Jim has been responsible for consulting assignments
which have directly assisted CEO's of various sized organizations to
achieve previously elusive goals. He has advised local governments,
and local self help groups, developed web sites for heritage organizations
and trail groups and planned and delivered training courses to young
entrepreneurs.
