About Tony

Tony Mayo is an experienced executive coach to business owners and their teams. He is a master of analogy and anecdote whose illustrations are as likely to come from his studies of brain science, high energy physics, or eastern philosophy as from his years of management and sales in high-technology. Whether speaking from a platform, coaching one-on-one, or facilitating a workshop, Tony maintains a laser focus on his goal of helping people realize their dreams.

Tony earned his MBA from the University of Chicago (now, Booth School of Business) at age twenty-one, after three years each of high school and college. He immediately started a business that he sold in 1982.

Tony has worked with Arthur Andersen & General Electric, founded boot-strap and venture-backed start-ups, and taught at the college, graduate, and executive levels. Tony is the author of #1 bestsellers The Courage to Be in Community and business-themed novel Crimes of Cunning. He is also the sole inventor of US Patents 6,678,663 & 7,930,209. His most important activities today are public speaking, working with business owners, and photography. All with one unifying purpose: to promote workplaces of humanity and prosperity where people can be productive and satisfied.
