Jerry Cahn

Jerry Cahn's unique skill-set as a psychologist, attorney, entrepreneur and professor, enables him to take both the person and the system into account.Jerry works with individuals and companies to challenge growth-limiting ideas to develop and implement innovative solutions.

As Chairman of CEO Advisory Boards at Vistage, Jerry combines his first-hand experience of “doing” which is founding, building and improving organizations, with his expertise in coaching, strategic consulting and teaching. Jerry feels privileged to work with smart CEOs and business developers who want more success, want to grow and minimize wasted time by capitalizing on opportunities and avoiding costly mistakes.

Through executive coaching, Jerry focuses on how to become a more effective leader. At Vistage meetings, Jerry challenge the members to share, collaborate and generate new ideas. The “magic” of peer advisory takes place when members hear new and different perspectives that lead to a much better solution than the member was originally considering.

As a personality and social psychologist and policy-focused attorney, Jerry has had the opportunity to engage in many areas including: the first national evaluation of handicapped children’s needs for Head Start services; teen support groups; health care issues on Capitol Hill and all sectors of the economy; presentation-focused technology and consulting companies; and IR/PR firms. Jerry teaches in universities and has sponsored mentoring internships to over 600 global students.
