**********************************************************************

Jim Fielding has spent over 30 years at the intersection of brand, culture, and commercial performance, leading billion-dollar P&Ls and global teams at Disney, DreamWorks, Fox, and more. Today, he’s a trusted advisor, executive coach, and speaker working with Fortune 500 leaders, mission-driven founders, and underrepresented voices who need to lead in complex, high-stakes environments.

His work now centers on “radical kindness” as a leadership system: not soft, not sentimental, but a disciplined way to drive retention, performance, and innovation while protecting dignity. Jim helps leaders and teams build psychologically safe environments, translate bold visions into operational reality, and design experiences, internal and external, that actually change behavior. For consulting firm owners, Jim is a rare blend of operator and coach.

He’s led global licensing, experiential retail, and large-scale reinventions, and now advises others on how to do the same. This episode will be especially useful if you help clients with leadership development, culture, or transformation and want a more concrete, metrics-driven way to sell, deliver, and grow long-term consulting relationships around “people work".
