Lead Through the Rapids. Stay Steady in the Flow.

Leadership for those who move fast, feel deeply, and operate in high-pressure environments

Leadership Hits Different When You're Built Like a Wild

Leading with a Wild signature means you’re navigating the rapids in real time, reading pressure, adjusting your line, and staying steady inside motion. But leadership isn’t only about staying upright in turbulence. It’s also about aiming your energy with precision.

Once you can hold your line in the rapids, you gain the capacity to draw back, focus, and release with intention.

Clarity replaces chaos. Direction replaces reactivity. Your decisions start landing exactly where you mean them to.

To lead with precision, you need to understand the instinct behind your decisions. Discover how your Wild Type shapes your leadership by taking the Wild Type Assessment.

Your Wild Instinct Is Your Leadership Operating System

Every leader has a Wild signature. The instinctive way your system responds to pressure, responsibility, risk, and uncertainty. When you know your Wild Type, you understand the pattern behind:

  • how you make decisions

  • how you communicate under stress

  • what triggers your intensity

  • why certain dynamics drain you

  • where your clarity comes from

  • how you hold authority and responsibility

Most leadership issues aren’t skill problems, they’re instinct problems.

Without knowing your Wild Type, you end up trying to lead with someone else’s system:

  • pushing when you’re built to pause

  • reacting when you’re built to read the room

  • overcontrolling when you’re built to trust flow

  • speeding up when you need to aim

  • holding back when you need to act

When your Wild Type is integrated, leadership becomes cleaner, steadier, more embodied and precise, and far less draining because you’re finally choosing the right line instead of battling the terrain.

This is why GJ begins leadership coaching with your Wild pattern.
Because when your instinct is aligned, everything else follows.

Leadership Coaching Backed by Real Experience

Wild leaders don’t need theory. They need someone who understands pressure, pace, responsibility, and instinct from the inside. GJ brings a rare combination of corporate leadership, technical depth, and Wild lived experience to his coaching.

Over more than two decades, GJ led major programs, digital transformations, and senior teams at companies including Microsoft, Impinj, Corbis Images, PlayNetwork, and Talking Rain Beverage Company. He navigated complex environments where clarity, communication, and decisive action were essential — and where leadership was tested daily by shifting priorities, tight timelines, and high organizational expectations.

His earlier experience in the music industry and his lifelong connection to motocross, board sports, and adventure riding taught him something that corporate leadership rarely names: leadership is ultimately an instinctive, embodied, nervous-system-driven act. That understanding shapes how he coaches.

His approach is:

  • direct and grounded

  • intuitive, but always practical

  • informed by Wild Type patterns

  • rooted in nervous system awareness

  • shaped by real-world leadership, not generic frameworks


GJ doesn’t try to make you into a different kind of leader. He helps you become a more coherent version of the one you already are — someone who chooses cleaner lines, stays steady in the rapids, and makes decisions that land exactly where you intend.
