After navigating his own career change more than 15 years ago - from general management and executive leadership positions in commercial banking and not-for-profit senior living communities to organizational consultant and professional coach - Jon found his true calling as a discernment and transition coach.  Since 2003, Jon has successfully served many in his community as a Leadership Consultant and Career Coach, as well as a Certified Retirement Transition Coach and Trained Spiritual Director.
