Hello! I’m Jude, and I definitely like to take sad songs and make them better.
I dedicate myself to cultural transformation driven specifically by data analytics, business ethics, leadership and governance. “Dismantling Diversity Management: Introducing and Ethical Performance Improvement Campaign”, is a book I wrote, published by Routledge, that tells the story of the work that powers my company Abundant Sun.
My main reason for working is to enable companies, mainly small to medium enterprises, to live their key corporate values truly. I love living, working and moving through a variety of cultures, all the time weaving people, places and experiences together.
Originally from the USA, I have for decades lived and worked internationally across Europe, and the Americas, and currently divide my time between the UK, Europe and the US.
By nature, I am playful and creative. I also have a very low boredom threshold, which makes me extremely good at multi-tasking. I enjoy being executive producer of digital media projects, and designing dynamic learning events aimed at finding human-centric solutions to issues of justice and business ethics.
As an Adjunct Professor I have designed and taught courses at undergraduate level in Cross-Cultural Psychology in my home state of New Jersey, and at an MBA level in Data Analytics, Decision-making and Performance Management in Vermont, my newly adopted home state. In Vermont, appointed by Governor Phil Scott, I served on the VT COVID-19 Economic Mitigation and Recovery Taskforce. This taskforce is charged with providing technical assistance and expertise to mitigate the devastating short-term economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, and with developing strategies designed to speed long-term business and community recovery.
I hold a BA in Psychology and a PhD in Business, and I love each discipline with equal measure. I am the author of many articles, and was a regular commentator on Vermont Public Radio delivering a number of powerful and insightful commentaries on contemporary issues.
