About Us

Experience

In December of 2016, W. Tom Simmons retired after 46 years in communications industries.  For the past 17 years, he served as the Senior VP of Public Policy for Midco and served as a recognized spokesman of the cable telecommunications industry testifying often before US Congressional Committees and state regulators.  But his passion has long been organizational structure and culture.  He is a trusted personal and corporate resource who understands how lonely it can be at the top and is here to help.

Approach

While Simmons is a popular keynote presenter on a number of management and leadership topics, he is most effective working with leaders to extract the real power of their organization's culture.  Simmons says, "Any plans without a culture primed for execution is just a collection of good intentions."

Why talk to Tom?

A coach is "a vehicle to transport passengers to a desired location", and that's his goal as well.  There is no one size fits all solution.  There is no system that guarantees success.  Most business leaders have the answers, but may need a coach to ask the right questions.  Since his first management job as a radio station general manager in 1978, Tom has been in the trenches of company leadership and has experienced the ecstasy of success and and the agony of defeat.  More importantly, he knows what contributed to both.

How We Do Things Around Here

Simmons' latest book shares lessons and strategies for creating and sustaining a positive culture - and turning around negative ones.  It explores the nature of businesses and measures organizational health.   Here's what others have said about the book:


  • "Tom is first and foremost a communicator.  On numerous occasions, he has been entrusted to share perspectives relating to important public policy before congressional committees., offering significant insight on matters pertaining to business and industry.  I am confident the lessons and messages offered in this book will be beneficial to leaders in the realm of business, non-profits, or the publiic sector."

            Senator John Thune


  • "Over the three decades I've known Tom, I've seen his principles and values drive his leadership toward success for his organization.  We can all learn from him!"

            Dennis Daugaard

            Governor of South Dakota


  • "Simmons charts his discovery of the concept and shares common sense checks and balances to help other business leaders do the same.  Simmons is brilliant and quick with a wonderful sense of humor.  He understands the concept of good culture and knows how to make it happen.  He is a relationship master and a great mentor and role model."

           Gene McGowan

           CEO  McGowan Capital Group


  • "Tom and I have worked together for nearly 30 years and learned through our shared experience that a fully successful organization requires a culture of excellence.  Of course, the organizational vision must be clearly stated, values understood, strategy sound, and be staffed with capable people, and then the company's culture will drive success.  "How We Do Things Around Here" is the unique selling proposition for attracting customers and employees alike, and Tom's book is a great read to help understand how culture creates an almost automatic drive toward success and excellence."

            Pat McAdaragh

           CEO   Midco
