Hi, I’m Jeff Hilimire. Father of five, CEO of Dragon Army, author of The 5-Day Turnaround, co-founder of 48in48, founder of Ripples of Hope.
My purpose is to have an out-sized, positive impact on the world. Reach out if you want to help me with that!
How to find me:
I wrote The 5-Day Turnaround to help leaders embrace the habits of the world's most successful startup CEOs in order to grow faster and achieve their goals. Whether you're a team lead at a non-startup, the CEO of a small company, or anywhere in between, this book will help you become the leader you always wanted to be!
I share what I'm up to during the day - plus tips on leadership and doing good - on Instagram. It's kind of a day-in-the-life channel for me. Let's connect!

...An update on EVERYTHING
I thought it might be time for an update on, well, everything. Let’s do this: Family Everyone at the Hilimire household is great. We are – like many of you – in the middle of swim team madness. It has its perks. Dragon Army We’re having an exceptionally strong Q2, which is great because we…
...The one thing holding you back from getting more done
Perhaps I’ve always been an action-oriented person. See a job that needs doing, do that job, move to the next one. But I think there’s more to it than that. Some examples: I decided to write a book, so last July I wrote every single day and by July 31st, I had a full draft…
...Introducing my next nonprofit venture: Ripples of Hope

Plus, I haven’t started a new company since 2015… :) First of all, I’ve been planning Ripples for years. And, without…
