He began his career as a radio and television reporter and was the youngest radio station group owner in the nation. Later, he founded Jennings-McGlothlin & Company, a consulting firm that became the world`s largest media consultancy and his legendary programming and sales strategies are credited with revolutionizing many parts of the broadcasting industry.

He traveled the globe in search of the world`s fastest companies for his landmark book, It`s Not the Big That Eat the Small - It`s the Fast That Eat the Slow. Within weeks of its release it hit the Wall Street Journal, USA Today and New York Times Bestsellers Lists. Now published in 32 languages, USA TODAY named it one of the top 25 books of the year!

Next, he and his research teams identified the world`s ten most productive companies for his bestseller Less Is More. That was followed by his book, Think BIG - Act Small, which profiled the only ten companies in the world to have organically grown both revenues and profits by double digits every year for ten consecutive years. Like all his previous books it debuted on all the bestseller charts. His next book, Hit the Ground Running - A Manual for Leaders revealed the tactics and strategies of the ten CEO`s who created the greatest amount of economic value between 2000 and 2009.

His latest book for his publisher Penguin Putnam, The Reinventors - How Extraordinary Companies Pursue Radical Continuous Change was released on May 10, 2012 and reveals the secrets of those leaders and organizations that have successfully reinvented and transformed themselves. In total, Jennings and his researchers have screened and studied more than 200,000 companies.

Along the way he found time to join forces with well known cardiologist Dr. John Kennedy and coauthor the 2010 Health, Mind and Body bestseller, The 15 Minute Heart Cure --The Natural Way to Release Stress and Heal Your Heart in Fifteen minutes a Day.

Critics call his books, "extraordinarily well researched, insightful, crisply written, accessible, intriguing and a vital resource for everyone in business," and USA TODAY calls Jennings one of the three most in-demand business speakers on the planet along with the authors of Good to Great and In Search of Excellence.

When not traveling the world on research, in search of adventure, and doing eighty keynote speeches each year, Jennings and his family split their time between the San Francisco bayside community of Tiburon, California and their lodge, Timber Rock Shore on a small lake in Michigan`s northern peninsula where they share the environment with native moose, bear, deer, wolves and soaring eagles.

Customization

One of Jason`s guiding principles is that every audience deserves a presentation that`s been custom tailored to fit their needs and exceed their expectations. In order to make that happen he undertakes the following preparation for each speech:

Diagnostic/Discovery Telephone Conference -- This hour-long conference call is designed to insure that Jason understands the company or sponsoring organization, its goals and objectives and what it`s trying to achieve by bringing in an outside speaker.

Ten Telephone Interviews -- Several weeks prior to the event the company or conference organizer provides Jason`s office with a list of up to ten people with whom he can have a ten to fifteen minute conversation about themselves, their responsibilities, their challenges and the areas in which they`d like to sharpen their skills.

When this work has been completed you`re insured of receiving a highly targeted and personalized speech.
