Gareth Hermann is an entrepreneur and consultant specializing in organizational strategy, goal implementation, and team accountability.
He first honed his expertise by scaling and selling a digital marketing agency. Building a service-based business from the ground up required Gareth to master both people and systems management—ensuring demanding deadlines were met without compromising quality or performance. During this time, he developed a simplified version of the EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) framework, which enabled him to step away from day-to-day operations and empower his team to scale the business independently.
Gareth also created a goal-setting and accountability program designed for entrepreneurs looking to elevate their performance. Inspired by his experience managing multiple businesses, he recognized the importance of staying focused and organized to achieve success. As a result, this program has helped entrepreneurs cut through distractions and accomplish high-impact projects.
Today, Gareth is committed to helping organizations build self-managing teams capable of setting and achieving meaningful business outcomes. He has developed a unique, bottom-up accountability framework that empowers executives, managers, and frontline workers to prioritize and execute what truly matters. This approach enables teams to drive measurable growth while allowing leaders to focus their time and energy on scaling the business.
Jeff is a post-exit entrepreneur and consultant helping companies and mission-driven organizations build high-performing, self-managing teams. He brings deep expertise in business strategy, organizational behavior, and interpersonal dynamics—combining operational rigor with emotional alignment to drive meaningful change.
Previously, Jeff co-founded Metric Theory, a leading digital marketing agency, and led the company through rapid growth and a successful acquisition by S4 Capital/Media.Monks, where he continues to lead global transformation and integration initiatives. Before that, he founded another digital agency and held a leadership role at Meltwater Group. Earlier in his career, he worked at Vian Group, a boutique investment bank, where he focused on founding and investing in emerging, high-growth companies.
Today, Jeff guides leadership teams through cultural and operational complexity to unlock scalable performance and purpose. As an advisor, investor, and board member, he works closely with companies and NGOs focused on education, international development, indigenous community building, and political discourse. He is passionate about applying systems thinking and human-centered leadership to solve complex organizational challenges.
Jeff holds an MBA from Stanford University, where he earned certifications in Public Management and Global Management and served as an instructor in the Interpersonal Dynamics program. He also trained in design thinking through the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (d.school) and earned his BS in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University.
