Our CEO & Founding Partner
In his early twenties, Stephen landed what he thought was going to be the career he'd have for the rest of his life. What he couldn't have predicted was the number of incredibly smart and humble leaders he'd meet, who challenged him to think big, to challenge the status quo, and to highly value the development of leaders. Through their mentorship, he's enjoyed a career full of variety, adventure, and learning; and what he's learned is that there are three keys to career and business success - the ability to adapt to change, the need for leaders to be aligned on the direction of the business, and how important execution is.

Through speaking, coaching, training and consulting, Stephen help small businesses become mid-market enterprises. Through the strategic management consulting firm, Gryphon Leadership Group, he does this by equipping organizations to adapt to new challenges, align on their strategy, people and culture, and accelerate to success. Throughout his career, he's enjoyed leading this type of change in these types of organizations, so he understands how to accomplish this so the business can make the impact it is intended to make - spoiler alert...this growth is accomplished when managers are skilled at successfully leading high performance teams.

Stephen has over 20 years of experience in business leadership roles, over 20,000 hours of coaching experience, and over 5000 hours of training and facilitation experience. As a consultant, close to a hundred businesses - from big pharma and big oil, to local SMEs - and hundreds of leaders across the globe have given him the privilege of being their guide as they navigated the pain of change to move toward sustainable growth.

When Stephen's not working, he loves riding motorcycles, trail running, mentoring, and meeting new people with big vision.
