SANTA CRUZ, California, August 19, 2010—The Glowan Consulting Group announced today that Kevin W. Grossman has joined the company as a principal and senior business consultant effective immediately.
In his new role, Grossman will work closely with Glowan’s principal team in delivering leadership development and executive and business coaching programs, as well as steering business development activities.
Grossman most recently served as president of HRmarketer.com, and he will continue to serve as director of the company’s newly formed marketing advisory board. HRmarketer.com is a product of Fisher Vista, LLC, a marketing software and services firm that focuses exclusively on the human capital and healthcare markets.
Grossman’s career spans more than 23 years of successful marketing communications, business and employee development, talent management and general management experience in the human resources and recruiting services industries and with high-tech and higher education sectors. His expertise also includes team-building, formal and informal learning and organizational development.
“Throughout my career I’ve been a student of leadership development and coaching practices, helping to create employee development and training programs at each of my previous organizations,” said Grossman. “But when I took part in the Glowan L3 Leadership Learning program in early 2009, the experience was so profound that I knew without a doubt this was my calling. I felt an immediate and extraordinary connection to Glowan’s leadership development philosophy, its coaching models and its learning programs.”
“Kevin’s intuitive feel for leadership development and coaching combined with his business, marketing and management experience, will be a huge boon for the organizations and business leaders we work with,” said John Anderson, principal and founder of Glowan. “I coached Kevin throughout the L3 leadership program and I’m thrilled to have him join us.”
“Emotional intelligence is the foundational element of today’s progressive leadership, and it’s something I noticed in Kevin during the L3 program,” said Marc Michaelson, Glowan principal. “Leaders of all kinds must be able to understand, manage and effectively respond to their emotional actions and reactions, along with those of others in their organization; we look forward to Kevin helping to instill these abilities in our clients.”
Grossman is one of the Top Online Influencers in Leadership (via the HRExaminer, Dr. Todd Dewett and Traackr.com), an HR Industry Top 100 Influencer (via industry analyst John Sumser), a prolific business blogger, and author of the eBook “Conversation Starters — Social Media Marketing in the HR Marketplace”. He has spoken at HR industry events and to CEOs on social media marketing best practices and business development. He also regularly consults in the areas of business development, marketing and sales, and social media best practices.
