| Introducing Jim Clemmer |
|
For over 30 years Jim Clemmer’s practical leadership approaches have been inspiring action and achieving results. His keynote presentations and workshops/retreats, seven best-selling books, columns, and newsletters have helped hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.
Jim is a popular columnist and a regular guest on radio and television programs. He is listed in half a dozen Canadian, American, and international Who’s Who directories. Among his many achievements, he’s especially proud of triplingthe size of his forehead!
The first of Jim’s books was The VIP Strategy. His second book, Firing on All Cylinders, is one of Canada’s all time bestselling management books. He followed that with Pathways to Performance. His next book, Growing the Distance, focused on personal leadership principles. A companion book, The Leader’s Digest, applies those same principles to leading others. His only work of fiction is “an edutaining case study” or leadership novel entitled Moose on the Table: A Novel Approach to Communications @ Work. His latest book is Growing @ the Speed of Change.
Jim co-founded and led The Achieve Group to become Canada’s largest training and consulting company. Achieve was purchased by California-based Zenger Miller and merged with other training companies to form AchieveGlobal. He is also a Practitioner in Residence for the masters (MASc) and doctoral (PhD) students in the University of Waterloo’s Industrial/Organizational Psychology program.
Jim has delivered over two thousand customized keynote presentations, workshops, and retreats. One of his goals, on his many business trips, is to have half as much fun as his family thinks he’s having!
