Autorenporträt
Willard Jackson was raised on Rudy's farm on the North Dakota plains, on prairie land. His life growing up was farm life. As a little boy, he raised a pet lamb, learned to ride horses, ran from over-protective roosters, and accompanied his father and hired men in routine work. He was soon involved and the routine became natural. Like other farm boys, he cannot tell you when he learned to drive: In his memory he was always driving, like he was always walking. In his later youth, Willard's responsibilities grew and his understanding of farm life deepened in spite of a profound goal to graduate high school, go to college, and make a life in something other than farming. Willard has proven to be a consummate educator. After a stint teaching at the university level, he served corporate America as a professional trainer, focusing primarily on developing leaders. Today, Willard serves as a coach for managers, leaders, and executives who seek to improve their effectiveness. He is happily married and has three grown children who, along with Willard's grand kids, occasionally enjoy hearing him recount long-ago farm stories.
