About

John Jell currently leads organizational development efforts for Dole Packaged Foods based in Westlake Village.

Previously, he led global Learning & Development under HR for energy drink leader Monster Energy. Prior to joining Monster John spent 25 years with The Coca-Cola Company and Nestlé in Sales, Marketing, and L&D capacities. He has also worked for a privately held firm, a venture capital holding, led a 501(c)3, and also had his own training company working with large organizations and nonprofits alike, including several in Ventura County.

On multiple occasions over the years, John took over teams that were underperforming and struggling.  He turned them all around quickly after realizing, regardless of organization type or industry, there were some basics and best practices to build, lead, and sustain high performing teams.

Through his own experience, combined with working under 20 different bosses and 12 different CEO’s, John identified many best practices in many leadership areas. These are the focus of his workshops to help all who attend become stronger leaders of higher performing organizations.

John has been supporting, coaching, and training leaders from front-line to C-level for over 20 years. Whether business, organization, or employee related, solving problems and making sound decisions are all in a day’s work as a leader. John has seen many good and bad decisions made, and their impact. His workshops teach leaders how to improve discipline and confidence in leading their teams and problem solving by trying to make the right decisions the first time around.
