Podcast Interview With Jason Sturgeon.

Jason, tell us a little bit about what you do. The first step of every client’s journey with me is the initial conversation. Whether across a table over a cup of coffee or lunch, on the telephone, or across distance via Skype, it’s important, as a consultant, to have a deep, meaningful conversation about what an organization needs, how it breathes and what the moving pieces are, before we can talk about solutions.

What qualifies you to be a consultant? What experience do you draw from when you give companies advice?

I started my career in construction when I was 15 years old, installing roofing and siding for my brother’s company over the summer to pay for my college education. While I learned about construction management in school, I worked my way up through the ranks of first, my brother’s company, then a local builder of vacation homes, only moving into construction management after I finished my degree.

As I worked in construction management, again moving upward from project to project, I found that my experience in the trades was a tremendous asset, because it gave me a perspective that few of my coworkers had.

Now that I am consulting, I find that both tracks of professional experience, trades, and management, give me a unique insight that lets me see the companies I help from a variety of angles and communicate freely with team members at all levels of the organization.

Being able to spend my days helping people to make their workplace a place where everyone wants to spend their time is something that brings me a great deal of satisfaction, and I feel that I have a unique perspective at bringing unconventional solutions to the table.

The first, obvious question that prospective clients ask me is “Okay, so you’re a consultant. What does that mean? What kind of problems do you solve?”

I like to think that there are few problems or issues that I don’t solve. In fact, if I had to boil my service down to its essence, problem-solving is what I provide. From clear, concise training on practical issues, review of accounting systems, IT troubleshooting and management, HR issues, morale, team building, company culture, and even smoothing interpersonal conflicts and communications problems in the workplace, I try to offer help solving any problem I can see.

“Okay, let’s say I’m ready for a change. What, exactly, is it that you do?”

Whether a company is a small operation with only a few employees or a big corporation with sophisticated HR needs, I have services to offer. Whether you have serious, functional issues and need a heavy duty overhaul or just need a light tune-up, I can provide the level of solutions that you need.

What else do you want to know?

Now you know who I am, what I do and why. Wondering what I could do to help your organization? Want to know more about my process or services? Give me a call at 425-269-4886 for a free initial consultation today!
