The Network Behind the Practice: How Jeff Reynolds Built a Consulting Business

Going independent doesn't have to mean going it alone. Jeff Reynolds took the leap in 2018 after more than 30 years in executive leadership, and eight years later he still has fun doing what he does. In this episode of the Your Second Curve podcast, Dr. Arnd Halbach sits down with Jeff to talk about what going independent really looks like. They cover the first weeks and months working alone, how Jeff found his first clients and built a portfolio, how he built a network of specialists to work with and why it helps, and how he thinks about retirement and legacy. Jeff also shares his advice for anyone who is about to leave corporate or already has. Jeff's career has spanned general management, sales and marketing, operations, strategic planning and business development. Today he works closely with C-suite leaders to improve performance, optimise costs and strengthen enterprise value, drawing on decades of experience from the other side of the boardroom table.
