In 1998, Dr. JP and Elizabeth Pawliw-Fry decided to leave their previous academic and clinical careers and start the Institute for Health & Human Potential. While the first few years were difficult as they focused on putting together some of the early research, training and coaching programs, today they are proud of what the IHHP team has accomplished. With offices in Canada, US, Australia and Switzerland, IHHP is recognized as a world leader in developing and delivering unique training programs in Emotional Intelligence to increase performance and leadership. It was recently named by Profit Magazine, as one of the "Fast 100," 100 fastest growing companies.
JP is acting President of IHHP and is responsible for turning its research and development work into new ideas and models that can help individuals and organizations find an edge in a competitive world. Formerly, he taught at two of North America’s most prestigious business schools executive education programs: the Kellogg Graduate School of Management in the US (rated number one worldwide) and Queens’s University in Canada. He is a highly sought after speaker on leadership and performance and has received acclaim for his work in personal leadership with sales organizations, leadership retreats, and motivational seminars across the world – last year he reached audiences in places such as England, Greece, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Venezuela, India and Australia.
His diverse training includes: Queen’s University, Harvard Medical School’s Mind Body Medical Institute and the University of Massachusetts Medical Center stress clinic.
Olympic and elite athletes have sought out JP to help them find an edge in performance. JP has worked as a performance coach to the Canadian Olympic men’s volleyball team at 3 Olympic Games. He has also worked with the Orlando Magic, as well as executives of the NHL, NBA, NFL and the US Olympic committee.
Along with his busy speaking schedule around the world, he now spends his time researching and writing about the variables that drive performance and leadership. His forthcoming book, Leadership Rewired, the New Science of Sustainable Performance, will be published in 2011.
