John Simmons MBA, BSc. Specialization Psychology

I’m a curious innovator who enjoys skiing, kayaking, cycling and I’m passionate about building, woodworking and helping. Rugby is in my DNA and I can answer pretty much all of life’s questions with a hockey metaphor or analogy….go ahead ask ,me. I spend as much time outdoors, being active daily, mountain biking, kayaking, skiing as I can…and oh yeah I’m pretty good at this business stuff as well.

I am a trusted and strategic leader with over 25 years of private sector and public service experience at both municipal and provincial government levels.

I’m currently a sessional instructor within the School of Business and also the Department of Public Safety & Justice Studies at a local University, which presents a unique mix of experiential learning and theoretical education in interconnected and somewhat overlapping disciplines.

Helping connect people in a way that reflects who they are and complemented by the ability to motivate, influence, engage, and define goals and garner commitment.
My ability to motivate, influence, engage, define goals and garner commitment has led to demonstrated successes in collectively creating inspirational vision, developing innovative solutions and supporting future growth.

I am a people leader that builds and manages internal and external stakeholder relations with integrity, respect and inclusiveness.

Although I’m a sole practitioner I have friends and LongBranch brings with it access to a number of subject matter experts in strategic planning, coaching, business case development and good old fashioned help!!!!

Give me a call to chat and we can start the conversation.
