Jack currently runs Morrison Business Consulting which he founded in Atlanta, GA in 1998 after taking an early retirement from the golf management industry. He offers clients services in:
Perhaps the greatest asset he brings to the coaching process is his ability to establish rapport and trust with his clients. If trust cannot be established between the coach and client, the process is likely to fail. Jack is known to be a man of unquestionable integrity and confidentiality.
During executive coaching sessions with sports minded clients he often calls upon his years as a professional athlete to compare the fundamental skills and nuances of golf and skiing to the fundamental skills and nuances of corporate management and leadership. If any client has been active in either sport, the correlations become enlightening.
