Hi, I am Ben Baker.
I believe in the philosophy of technology in the loop and humans at the helm.
That systems, processes and people need to work together to build better things, develop stakeholder trust and allow goals to be achieved.
As a communicator focused on stakeholder relations, customer experience, and change management, I have built a career around Stephen Covey’s philosophy: “Seek first to understand and then to be understood.”
I recognize that biases exist, context matters, and real solutions require interpretation, understanding, and flexibility.
I think differently. My goal is to build doors and windows into silos, let in the light, and help teams understand how aligning people and working together reduces stress and creates solutions that benefit everyone and achieves mutual goals.
My mission and purpose:
I am passionate about working within a mid- to large-sized B2B organization again.
I want us to create significant national or international impact together, drive change, achieve goals, and for me to coach, mentor, and lead the next generation of leaders.
I am seeking Director or VP-level leadership positions focused on:
Change Communications
Stakeholder Relations
Change Management
Customer Experience
Special Projects
My 25+ years of experience have helped clients across industries, organizational sizes, countries, and continents get from where they are to where they want to be.
Let’s discuss how I would be a great fit for your organization.5
