Jim's journey from corporate America to global changemaker offers valuable lessons in authentic brand building.? His story isn't just about business success – it's about finding purpose through service and creating lasting impact across continents.
The Challenge: Merging Multiple Missions Under One Brand
Jim approached BrandFace with a complex challenge that many entrepreneurs face: how to weave together three distinct business ventures into one cohesive brand story.? With executive leadership experience, a nonprofit foundation, and a new coaching program, Jim needed a way to present his diverse experiences in a way that would resonate with his target audience of intentional servant leaders. He needed all of these passionate pursuits under one clear brand, and BrandFace helped him do it!
The Strategy: Positioning Service as the Bridge to Success
BrandFace positioned Jim's brand around the powerful concept of "going beyond borders" – both literally and figuratively.

The focus on servant leadership and achieving "superabundance through service" became the thread that tied everything together.
The Impact: A Brand That Inspires Action
The results speak volumes about the transformation. Jim now has a professional image that authentically communicates his mission and naturally draws people in and sparks genuine interest from his ideal clients. With comprehensive branding assets at his disposal, he's ready to shine for any opportunity to share his message, whether through his coaching program, speaking engagements, or foundation work in Kenya.? ?

1 天前Good one, Tonya. Reminds me of that Servant-Leadership insight by Ken Blanchard in LEAD LIKE JESUS. To paraphrase: True leadership is through multiple interrelated layers. - Organizational Leadership - Community Leadership - Family Leadership - Relational Leadership - Self Leadership If one of the prerequisite layers is given short shrift (e.g., relational leadership: how we lead-treat others), the subsequent layers (family, community, etc.) will eventually crumble. If self leadership is given short shrift, it will show in 1:1 relationships and family. Eventually. One of the BEST lessons I learned in seminary--while deconstructing TED Talk "sermons." ????????????: ??????%???? = ???? ????-???????? ????????. ;7
