Jef Williams

Jeffrey (Jef) A. Williams is an inspiring, award-winning speaker, author, and facilitator who is committed to helping leaders and managers build high performing teams that produce better results for their organization. He firmly believes that when leaders and those who follow them bring their “A Game” to the table, nothing can stop them from succeeding as a team. Today, Jef the “Transformer,” inspires audiences to renew their minds through his pragmatic approach to dynamic teamwork through exemplary leadership and followership. His fun and interactive seminars impact traditional mindsets and stimulate positive behavioral changes to achieve greater results for the organization.

Jef grew up in Baltimore, MD as a shy and very insecure young man. It wasn’t until years after being in the military that he recognized his God-gifted talent as a speaker and motivator. As a keynote and motivational speaker, he travels throughout the country inspiring his audiences to go beyond self-imposed barriers, recognize their unique gifts and talents, and then encourage them to live their lives with purpose. A few of his presentations include: “Leadership-Followership 360”, “Many Members Yet One Team,” “Why Am I Here?” “One Day!,” and “Presenting with Purpose and Power.”

Jef is the Founder/CEO of JCW Team Consultants, LLC, a firm specializing in human performance and productivity. He developed a solid leadership foundation through 26 years of service in the United States Air Force where he earned the rank of Chief Master Sergeant (E9), a rank reserved for the top 1% of the enlisted force. He served as an advisor and consultant to senior leaders on myriad personnel, leadership, and management issues.

He holds a MA in Religion and is currently pursuing a PhD in Organization and Management with specialization in Leadership at Capella University.
