My community on LinkedIn has grown exponentially over the last few months, this newsletter alone has almost 300,000 subscribers making it one of the more popular newsletters on the platform!
However…
I realize that a lot of people who recently started following me or my newsletter might not know who I am, so let’s fix that.
My name is Jacob Morgan. I’m a dad to a 16-month-old boy named Noah, a 5-year-old girl named Naomi, and two furry babies (dogs) named Athene and Blinnie who are both Yorkie mixes. And of course, I’m married to my amazing wife Blake!
We recently relocated from the Bay Area to Calabasas, CA to be closer to family and are still unpacking boxes as we speak!
We both work from home together and people always ask us how we can spend so much time together and we haven’t killed each other yet, but it works for us, which I guess is the sign of a good marriage right?
For the past 15 years I’ve been an entrepreneur ever since an executive at a company I worked at made me get him coffee. Today I focus on leadership, the future of work, and employee experience.
I try to create organizations we all want to be a part of and leaders we all want to work for and I do that through speaking, writing books (4 of them), and creating a lot of content! I’m also a professionally trained futurist (University of Houston).
I work with an amazing team of 12 people around the world who help me run my business.
I come from a family of immigrants (Republic of Georgia) and my original last name is actually Mamisashvili. I was born in Melbourne, Australia and my grandmother, aunt, and niece still live there,
Fun facts, I play competitive chess and racquetball.
When I was younger I was diagnosed with ADHD but I use that as my superpower because when I like or enjoy doing, I can spend hours focusing on it and getting things done.
I exercise and eat healthy with the exception of two meals a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays where I got a bit crazy with my cheat meals!
Most importantly, I’m grateful for all of you who leave me comments, share my content, send me emails, and invite me to speak at your amazing organizations around the world.
I invite you to connect with me on various social channels!
I’d love to learn more about you as well, please share something about yourself in the comments below!
