Frank Nuessle
Frank's passion is to assist business leaders to bring clarity to their vision and then to translate
that vision into concrete, actionable plans that move the organization forward, positioned for greater success in the
new economic environment of the 21st century.
In this new economy, the processing of information and creation of knowledge are the main sources of productivity. Command and control systems simply do not work in a complex "knowledge worker" driven economy.
Frank believes that a successful organization is a complex mixture of art and science. He brings his 30-year career in cable television, publishing and corporate consulting to help clients design and implement customized solutions to fundamental questions such as:
- How to hold and communicate a clear vision of the future while creating a climate of trust that allows
the freedom to make mistakes which then fosters organizational learning?
- How to create an organizational culture that can adapt to continuous change, that stimulates creativity,
and that serves the triple bottom line of profit, people and planet?
- How to bring together all stakeholders or communities of practice in self-generating, informal networks
to allow the organization to thrive and adapt in this complex, forever changing 21st Century marketplace?
Networks of self-directed teams, not ego-driven, turf-protecting silos, are the key to success in the decades to come. Today's successful leaders understand they can't always direct a living, vibrant social system; but they can always disturb it. An effective leader must choose which disturbances to foster and then focus on creating meaning for all of his or her stakeholders. This is the new awareness, the new challenge of 21st century leadership.
With particular expertise in sales, marketing and strategic planning, Frank has worked in recent years with HP, Unisys, Fujitsu Computer Systems, Harris Corporation and Siemens Medical to assist leadership to generate greater productivity from existing resources and to accelerate revenue growth.
Frank holds an Economics Degree from Princeton University, a Masters in Business Administration from The University of Rochester and has studied organizational design in the Organizational Dynamics Program at the University of Pennsylvania. He resides in Newtown Square, Pa with his wife, Sita, while maintaining strong ties to San Francisco where his daughters live in the suburbs.
