I’ve been a teacher, a principal, a congressional staffer, and a Dean. I've led schools, non-profits, and movements. For the last 15 years I've worked in higher education disability. I even co-authored Tennessee's Dyslexia law. On a whim, I wrote a little indie leadership book that became an Amazon bestseller, and I am also actively involved in filmmaking as an actor, screenwriter, and producer. Leadership is a conversation worth having, especially when we connect it to personal biases, learning, and life in general. I’ve been speaking and presenting for years, and I’ve presented from Appalachia to Africa, so make no mistake I'll say yes, and come to you wherever you are as well. All you have to do is ask! I want to make a difference helping you make yours.

Jeremy Woodall has spent thirty years operating where resilience isn't optional - as a Royal Marines Officer operating in artic or jungle environments, as a humanitarian consultant, or as a therapist working with some of the most vulnerable people in society. He is not someone who studied pressure from the outside. He has worked alongside UN & NGO agencies and Coalition Forces in Afghanistan, set up emergency security infrastructure in Iraq, coordinated humanitarian responses, and spent two decades in therapeutic practice developing the tools to address what most wellbeing programmes never touch. His keynote — Time to Sort Out Your S.H.I.T. (Self, Held, Invisible, Toxins)— takes the concept of internal load and turns it into something an audience of high-functioning professionals can recognise in themselves and actually use, and it brings lightness to a subject most people carry heavily. Jeremy also delivers workshops and programmes for military, veteran, and humanitarian organisations through the "Inside Out Warrior Programme" — a methodology built on emotional resilience, attention training, and self-directed healing from the inside out.

As a John Maxwell Certified Coach, Teacher and Speaker, I inspire, empower and equip people to practice purposeful leadership of self and of others while helping them to discover their strengths and maximize effectiveness to achieve desired results. I offer a combination of services that includes workshops, seminars, keynote speaking, and professional and executive coaching aiding personal and professional growth through study and practical application of proven leadership methods. Working together, I will move you, your team, or organization in the desired direction to reach your goals. My journey of personal and professional growth began in my teenage years. I started collecting thoughts on leadership, living with intent, and communication while living them out to stretch and grow as an individual. I began my professional career at JP Morgan Chase as part of a management consulting and leadership development program - one of 40 young professionals selected from among 1,300 applicants. Through mentorship and a continuous focus on growth, I found my niche in leadership, organizational effectiveness as well as business process design and development. Through diverse management consulting opportunities, I learned that leadership is influence – not hierarchical position, title or formal authority. A mentor introduced Michael to John C. Maxwell in early 2002 by recommending the book and learning program titled “Today Matters” – a book that has tremendously impacted my life. As a Founding Partner and John Maxwell Certified Leadership Coach, Trainer, and Speaker I have had the opportunity to train thousands of leaders and executives internationally. I am a contributing author to the handbook of “Business Strategy Series” published by Emerald Insights. I'm also the Founder and President of Light the World Foundation – an organization dedicated to educating children in Haiti and providing mentorship and coaching to young adults in communities of New York City and Long Island. Leveraging my experience in Corporate America, my entrepreneurial endeavors combined with the proven leadership principles and practices taught by John Maxwell, I possess a unique combination of skills, tools, and insights to draw upon to help you develop a comprehensive growth plan for you, your team, and your organization. I can help motivate and empower your staff to be more productive, create/enhance a culture of leadership leading to a positive transformation in your organization. Contact me today to discuss your needs and how I can add value to you or your project.

I'm the guy to see when you're ready to break free... But I wasn’t always that guy. In fact, I was the one who spent most of my life imprisoned, not by a physical prison, but rather one created in my mind. Living a life full of “no’s and never’s”, of failures and disappointments. I just thought that was how life was. Some people were talented and gifted, successful and self-confident, and some were not. I was one of the “not’s”. But after some significant life events, I not only came to recognize the obstacles I was facing, but also the challenges that lie ahead. That challenge transformed my life into a journey; a journey that has changed my point of views, my results, and my life. I am not the same person I was just a few years ago. I believe in my ability to do the things I never thought I was capable of, and I have done things I never thought possible. My challenges have given me a unique perspective, and my professional experience includes retail and logistics management as well as corporate training, and I have a keen focus on customer service. I have come to learn that the truths we cling to depend greatly upon our point of view, and by changing your perspective, you will see those obstacles and challenges as opportunities to grow and achieve success beyond expectation; to take a quantum leap in performance and results. Nothing in life is “coincidence”, things happen for a reason, and it is not what happens, but rather how you choose to respond to it that makes the difference and creates the environment you are operating in. Remember, if you don’t like the answers you are getting; ask better questions! And as I don't believe in coincidence, I also don't believe it is one that my information has found its way to you. Is now your time to break free? Let’s start the conversation and take that quantum leap; getting you the performance and results, along with the inspiration and motivation, to blast through any obstacles or challenges that arise for you or your team.
