Bio
Jim Thorne
Jerry Toomer is a consultant, executive coach and teacher who brings wisdom, experience and creativity to his work. We have collaborated on projects and I know he will always deliver quality consulting and coaching. He develops exceptional relationships with clients and helps them discover paths to increased self-awareness and improved results. I recommend him without qualifications. Jim Thorne
Jonathan Jerden
I have enjoyed knowing Jerry since 2002 - first as a client working with Dow AgroSciences in a major downsizing initiative, then as a partner with Drake Beam Morin writing proposals and delivering coaching and consulting contracts in complex assignments with manufacturing and service clients, and then as a friend. I can attest to his strength of character, the love and admiration he continues to receive from his many former co-workers at DAS, the ease at which he puts his clients right from the beginning reflecting years of coming up with impressive solutions to match big corporate problems, and the courage he has shown his family and friends in the course of maintaining relationships and fighting the good fight. He is a first-rate consultant in any HR, OD and strategy challenge with big companies and small, delivering quality coaching to the most demanding senior executive. He should be on your short list of advisors should you need world-class counsel.
