Charlie Gilkey is the founder and CEO of Productive Flourishing, a company and website that helps professional creatives, leaders, executives, and changemakers take meaningful action on the stuff that matters. Productive Flourishing is one of the top websites on the topics of planning, productivity, creativity, and team development.
His most recent book, The Small Business Lifecycle, helps people navigate the unique lifecycles of small and microbusinesses so they can make better, more aligned choices about how to take meaningful action and drive their businesses forward. His forthcoming book helps people start finishing the stuff that matters.
Charlie's work is widely cited across media outlets and is routinely featured, showcased, or highlighted in places like Inc., BNET, Fortune, the Guardian, Lifehacker, Copyblogger, Problogger, and the Domino Project. He's also a sought-after speaker, event facilitator, and teacher.
Charlie's perspective is guided by his dual background as an Army logistics officer and his graduate studies in philosophy. He deployed to Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2004 - this experience was simultaneously the worst and best year of his life - and is working to complete his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. This unique background makes him deeply researched and analytical at the same time that he's imminently practical and action-focused. In his infrequent spare time, he's a singer-songwriter and outdoor enthusiast.
