He is an author, educator, and international professional speaker (25 countries on 5 continents). He demonstrates how to use authority without coercion so relationships are never adversely affected.
His Without Stress® approach in living, parenting, and disciplining is totally noncoercive—but never permissive. He is the author of a number of landmark and award-winning books.
His approach is transformational—as he shares many commonly used counterproductive and ineffective practices—and then replaces them with more effective ones.
