Experience
Founder and CEO
Jan 1993 — Present
For over three decades, I’ve had the privilege of inspiring corporate teams, executive leaders, and peer forums around the world to operate with greater depth, trust, creativity, and effectiveness.As the Founder and CEO of Hesse Partners, I’ve designed and facilitated more than 3,500 retreats, trainings, and forum programs across 30+ countries. I specialize in curating transformational experiences for organizations such as YPO, EO, HBS, Lean In, XLO, Chambers of Commerce, and many others.My background as an entrepreneur — founding and scaling a successful printing business — gives me a deep understanding of the challenges and complexities leaders face. I also served as Entrepreneur-in-Residence at the Kauffman Foundation for 13 years, helping bridge strategy with real-world business growth.Today, I lead a select team of experienced facilitators and consultants who bring expertise in forum, leadership development, emotional intelligence, strategic planning, and communication. Our work empowers clients to build more collaborative cultures, deepen peer connections, and spark life-changing conversations.Based in La Jolla, California, I remain committed to helping individuals and teams unlock their full potential — with curiosity, candor, and emotional intelligence.
