Jim Lee is a leadership transformation expert having over 30 years of experience working in large corporations, medium sized businesses, non-profits, and successfully starting new companies. Jim’s career began in traditional, hierarchical corporate environments, where he consistently achieved exceptional results by pioneering and empowering a people-centric approach to leadership. His philosophy is rooted in the belief that organizations thrive when employees feel secure, confident, and valued—and when leaders lead through influence rather than positional authority.

Jim has a proven track record of helping leaders at every level uncover and navigate blind spots, fostering organizational health while driving sustainable growth. His approach enables leaders to unlock their teams' full potential, scale their businesses effectively, and build cultures of trust, collaboration, and innovation.

Through B-SPOKE Consulting, Jim partners with HR executives, senior leaders, and managers from Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, and startups to implement leadership strategies that empower teams and amplify organizational impact. His unique coaching framework equips leaders to break through barriers of influence and build high-performing teams by addressing over-reliance on individual strengths, which can often hinder collaboration and scalability.

Jim’s client engagements focus on:

• Developing self-awareness and overcoming blind spots to enhance leadership effectiveness.

• Scaling teams by building trust, fostering clear communication, and aligning goals.

• Creating resilient and adaptable leadership pipelines to drive long-term success.

In addition to coaching and consulting, Jim is deeply committed to community impact. He volunteers with nonprofit organizations to promote leadership development in diverse communities. Outside of work, Jim enjoys road trips with his wife, Jane, and daughter, Charlotte, while cultivating meaningful connections in his local community.
