Mario Tamayo, has 30 plus years of experience in training, human performance and organization development, and has been an advocate of promoting company cultures of enjoyable employment and recognition—demonstrating that “work made fun, does, in fact, get done.” He has successfully leveraged the skills he demonstrated in the 6th grade at St. Michael’s Academy—that won him the “Class Clown” and “Least Likely to Succeed” monikers—to prove his teachers were somewhat in error.

Mario is a principal with Tamayo Group, Inc. (www.tamayogroup.com), a Cardiff by-the-Sea, California-based leadership consulting firm. He coaches, writes extensively and speaks and leads workshops on management development, presentations skills, and personal and professional empowerment.

He has been responsible for several successful performance and product improvement initiatives for organizations, including Amylin Pharmaceuticals, The Anthony Robbins Companies, Broadcom, The Ken Blanchard Companies, Life Technologies, Mitchell, Nelson Motivation, PETCO, Prosciento, and ViaSat.

After earning a master’s degree from San Diego State University, Mario established the first values-based awards process for General Dynamics in the early 1980s. At GD, he developed and implemented Fit to Lead, a broad-scoped executive development and coaching program. Simultaneously, he co-developed and directed the corporate wellness program—consistently ranked in the Top 10 in America.

At The Ken Blanchard Companies, Mario served as a company ombudsperson and mediator—working closely with Ken as his company expert on ethics, values, and recognition. He also served as Brand Manager and as Director of Product Development where his team developed 250+ leadership products including SLII®, SLII®DiSC, SLII®MBTI®, Building High-Performing Teams®, Raving Fans®, Legendary Service® and Gung Ho® product lines that are used by companies worldwide.
