He is best known as a leadership specialist skilled in corporate strategy, identity/branding, organizational alignment, change management, reskilling, and corporate communications. Majer is an effective strategist with proven ability in coaching executives and managers at multiple levels. His special emphasis is on using corporate values as a method for aligning culture.

Dr. Majer is founder and CEO of San Diego-based MajerStrategies, Inc., whose vision is to help companies stay ahead of the curve and adapt to new realities in today’s radically changing business world.

Ken Majer has been an invited speaker to numerous conferences, including two addresses at White House on the Consumer and Financial Services Industry. His message is clear: In light of the past few years of business scandals and lack of ethics, it’s time to join the values-based revolution. It’s time to recover our individual values and commit to living a life consistent with them.

What is Ken Majer doing when he’s not at work coaching and serving as a role model for values-based living? Simple, he’s interviewing values-based leaders who are telling him their stories about how they reached the pinnacle of success with good values and a highly ethical business approach. And it’s the ingredients for the writing of his next book titled Values-Based Corporate Leadership: Valuable Stories From America’s Top Business Leaders, which goes hand-in-hand with his personal goal to use storytelling as a method for meaningful communication of important ideas and to relate the significance of person-to-person communication in a technology-laden world.

What does Ken Major love to do when he's not working?

Author Ken Major believes that everyone has far greater talent than they realize, and he loves nothing more then to stretch people to uncover the greatness in themselves.

Whenever Ken Majer is out on the bay and there is another sailboat out as well, there is a race going on whether the other guy knows it or not.

Ken has the unique ability to attract talented people and create environments where conversation, energy, and ideas flow—along with some very good wine.

Whether you find Ken Majer on the high seas under sail, on the green felt of the pool table, or around the fireplace--no matter where--the conversations will be rich and the friendships will be priceless.

To author Ken Majer, a house is not a home without a dog and a wood burning fireplace.

Ken loves to get surprise phone calls from dear friends, so he makes them
everyday.

For Ken Majer, watching a good movie is a great way to create balance to the intensity of his work.
