Jerry Talley is the veteran of 3 careers.
His first venture was
on the faculty of Stanford
University teaching
in the Sociology
Department for 18 years.
Stanford was also the
source of his PhD.
Coincident with that
experience, he had
a practice as a Marriage
and Family Therapist
for about ten years.
He lectured at Stanford
and other Bay area
schools on relationship
issues for several years afterwards.
Starting in the late
1970's, he moved into
organizational development
consulting, accumulating
over 450 client engagements
since that time. For
16 years he managed
the South Bay Organizational
Development Network,
a 500-member professional
development group for
HR, Training, and
OD practitioners.
His clients have included
companies in high
tech R&D,
hospitality,
health care, the military,
manufacturing,
insurance, banking
and credit unions,
public education, publishing,
entertainment, mental
health, city and county
government, not-for-profits,
and large consulting
houses...and one
organic grocery store.
Through all these experiences, the
common focus was on
how people think about
and manage complex
and troubling situations,
and
how they form relationships
with each other (or
not) in the process.
His current focus is on supporting the careers of emerging and seasoned
consultants. He provides training in the critical components
of organizational consulting, as well as mentoring
and project support when needed.
