Andy McDowell bio:
Andy McDowell is an engineer by trade and creative by nature. He founded the entrepreneurial and small business coaching and consulting firm Generate Your Value, co-host of The Generate Your Value Podcast, and an Executive Contributor for Brainz Magazine.
Andy spent 22 years with the Boeing Company, where he always felt more like a life coach than a boss. In 2002, he began his journey into entrepreneurship within a corporation when he was asked to develop an Airspace Design Consulting business from scratch that would serve the global government market.
Andy has a bachelor’s degree from Georgia Tech in Electrical Engineering and a master’s in Computer Information Systems from Georgia State. Naturally, his aviation work took him around the world. It enabled him to work on high-profile projects - such as preparing the Beijing and Sochi Airports for their respective Olympic Games.
Andy would love to talk with you about how he might be able to use the strategic skills developed from his years with the Boeing Company to Generate Value in your personal and professional life. He has a keen sense for applying business concepts to life coaching, and life coaching concepts into business.
