John Mann MBA | BSChE
Want your teams to acquire and practice exceptional business skills? Let's talk.
LEARN - EARN - RETURN they say.
Well, I'm in the "return" phase of my career.
Not that I've quit learning!
From innovation leader at large CPG companies, to successful business consultant, to college business professor, I have "been there, and done that." Along the way I have brought significant, unique value.
The throughline of my career has been innovation:
- Developing new brands at major CPG companies
- Helping businesses and brands find novel ways to achieve sustainable growth
- Creating unique training experiences that help people become their best selves.
I bring inspiration to dream big, and then make those dreams a reality.
