“I believe Jerome embodies the legacy of Dr. Lindblad-Goldberg and he demonstrates it every time he enters the room as a trainer. Jerome has an unwavering belief in those he encounters and can instantly appreciate what anyone is willing to bring to the table. He also has a warmth that he continues to develop as a tool for validating and challenging others to grow when they are uncomfortable. I think the most nurturing part of Jerome’s presence, as a trainer, is his ability to hold himself accountable for his own growth and development before he asks others to venture into uncomfortable waters. This has resulted in him being able to continually hone his skills of creating simplicity in the face of complexity.”
