Jake Morrill works with leaders ready to establish greater ease and impact in their life and work.  By promoting deeper conviction, connection, and calm in his clients, Jake helps leaders build strength and resilience in their work cultures and families.

 

Since starting a neighborhood lawn-mowing business at age 11, Jake has observed the impact of relationships on work.  In his twenties, in Cape Town, South Africa, he co-founded and led a multi-racial youth leadership training program for students from 27 schools.

 

Jake has led three non-profit organizations through periods of change.  As a Chaplain (Captain) in the U.S. Army Reserve, he was recognized for meritorious leadership in the face of particularly complex circumstances.  In 19 years as Lead Minister, Jake helped transform a fractured congregation into a lively, cohesive force for alleviating homelessness and bridging differences in the wider community.  In 2016, the local NAACP gave him their “Community Spirit” award for his work in racial reconciliation.
