I PLACE THE GAME CHANGERS

My mission is to GO ALL IN with my area of expertise in human behavior, which is applied both in the corporate world and within US communities. The main goal is to facilitate growth and prosperity for my clients and cities, all made possible due to the focus on my target group: placing and developing the Modern Day Vikings, who are the high-achievers. These Game Changers are instrumental in making America and the world a better place. My work, grounded in a lifetime of study and over two decades within my field, has yielded replicable models that consistently produce excellent results. My influences are rooted in the Norse belief system and the behavioral theories by Carl Jung,  the founder of analytical psychology. To maximize my impact, I am:

• As the founder/CEO, building (ESR) Executive Search Research to be the first global research recruitment firm of its kind, specializing in executive search research and serving my client base of Fortune 1000 companies to have a worldwide impact.
• Through ESR's CSR program (NRA) Neighborhood Rescue of America and the GoViking internship program, creating a robust national US organization with impact in all 5o US states. Our mission at NRA  is to empower communities, reduce crime by assisting law enforcement in implementing the Norse Althing Methodology, and headhunt the right leadership possessing core Viking traits.
• Conducting the GoViking workshop for high-achievers to activate their Norse blueprint, and the GoViking Talent community for the +5000 unique individuals ESR has placed in key roles, aiming to further enhance their personal development in career, personal life, and in branding/ impact/legacy.
• As a public speaker for corporate clients on the topic of the 1000 years old Viking Spirit to instill a high-performance work culture and for US law enforcement leadership on deploying the Althing to effectively combat crime, and as a futurist, sharing my foresight on "The future for law enforcement in the U.S" to chart a positive path for the future.

Being a second generation headhunter, in addition to my first years as an apprentice for the greatest international headhunters in the U.S. and Scandinavia, gave me a unique opportunity to be molded early in my career to become very knowledgeable and skilled in headhunting. In my very first years, I created a best-practice model outlined in "Secrets of the Executive Search Experts", which was published by the American Management Association, becoming a US bestseller in my field. Next, armed with the industry best practice method, I started my successful global headhunter practice, and now two decades later I have completed over 5,000 key recruitments with a 97% hiring ratio, which translates to me presenting 30,000 diamond candidates. This is in addition to personally conducting a total of 1000 full cycle executive search assignments both domestically and internationally and over 10,000 assessments (with applying a model I created based on Carl Jung principles to predict human behavior). Next to my busy schedule at ESR, I have written close to a dozen books on the subject matter of my skillset for the purpose of creating replicable processes which can generate the same excellent results each time for both myself and others (called the 100X factor in the Viking workshop).

I graduated with a BBA from Pacific Lutheran University; Tacoma, WA. In addition, I conducted African American studies at California State University and later conducted extension studies in psychology at Harvard."

The status quo of a business, city, or community is directly linked to its leadership and the application of a proven model. To validate the ancient 3-phase Norse Althing methodology, after first presenting it as a futurist at the World Future Society's annual conference in Vancouver, Canada, I next selected a random city with the worst conditions in the US. I traveled to Las Vegas to implement the Althing, and as a project director with a core team recruited from local Modern Day Vikings, the result was a turnaround of the most dangerous neighborhood with a 75% crime reduction. By duplicating the Althing blueprint and applying our headhunting skills, we are now transforming the U.S. and changing the world through Neighborhood Rescue of America. Other cities, following the Las Vegas case study, have achieved over a 90% reduction in violent crime with no tax money used. The model is presented in the award-winning documentary "Vegas Vikings" and "The Althing Methodology" manual, which is easily replicable for every city and state in the US, with the same excellent results to be anticipated.

All my work including own Norse upbringing,  which includes influences passed on by my own Viking ancestors, which includes being a  direct descendant of Viking King Gudröd Ragnvaldsson have always been based on the positive ancient Norse Viking Spirit principles.  A core belief is that anyone can become a modern day Viking as its based solely on possessing a high degree of consciousness and self-discipline together with massive action aligned with mastering certain core Viking traits.  I have been privileged to have been given the opportunity to share my expertise on the subject as well as identifying those who possess the success traits, which categorizes them as "diamonds" and "modern day Vikings".  To facilitate that these unique individuals gets to maximize their opportunities and having the biggest possible impact for my corporate clients and for the US cities in need is a a true blessing.
