Resume

John Rini

Independent advisor · Hudson, Ohio 44236

I work at the intersection of people, story, and the next chapter of a company — searches, successions, and the sentences that make either of those hold. Independent on purpose. A small number of engagements.

A sunlit study with an oak desk, books, and a leather notebook.

Experience

  1. Present

    Independent practice

    Rini · Northeast Ohio

    • Advise leaders on who comes next and how that is said.
    • Work across family manufacturers, professional firms, and sports properties.
    • Keep the slate short. Keep the conversations honest.
  2. Earlier

    Leadership, commercial, and sports

    Midwest and beyond

    • Years in rooms where the decision was a person: sales and marketing leadership, collegiate and professional sports, and family companies.
    • The through-line is the same. Listen longer than is comfortable. Write the sentence the room has been avoiding.

Focus

  • Succession in closely held companies
  • Leadership search
  • Narrative and commercial reset
  • Family enterprise
