Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Jerry Straks is a certified coach and management consultant. Jerry
spent 25 years in the high-tech industry prior to founding his own management consulting business in
2003. He completed a graduate level coach certification program at John F. Kennedy University in 2004
and began a master’s degree in organizational psychology. He has worked for companies ranging from
Fortune 500 companies to startups. Managing teams ranging from 5 to 250, Jerry has led corporate
functions ranging from engineering to marketing and product management, including holding P&L
accountability. In addition to line management, he has experience in corporate strategy, business
development, and business planning and analysis. He also has extensive experience working with nonprofit
organizations, including having been on the board of directors for an organization that builds and
manages low-income retirement communities.
From this broad base of experience Jerry has distilled certain key principles and skills necessary for
effective leadership in the twenty-first century. His focus for coaching and consulting is sustainable
leadership development and his goal is to help organizations establish a culture based on the core
principles of sustainable leadership he has developed over the last three decades. A significant focus of
his business is in helping companies of all sizes define and calibrate their own “scorecard” and processes
for investment decision support, referred to as “project portfolio management.” Customers ranging
from Johnson Controls and Carlson Companies to Robert Half and Safeway have been able to get
“more bang for the buck” by choosing initiatives and projects that best support their strategy and
mission. Regardless of the thorny problem he is brought in to help solve, he utilizes coaching,
organization development, conflict management, and management consulting to help craft and
implement creative, pragmatic solutions that fit the customer’s needs in ways that will last.

the success of a certain group relies on the leader. if he is good then the success of the group is always possible. not only in sports but in almost everything that involves teamwork
Fear not that the life shall come to an end, but rather fear that it shall never have a beginning.
