John Petersen is the founder of Threshold Rising LLC a company focused on 'leadership as fellowship,' the belief that trust is the currency of relationships. His core coaching philosophy stems from the believe that 'values make the leader and trust makes the team.'
Through 'embedded leadership' John goes deep with teams rather than broad to build lasting trust focused relationships to help teams fulfill amazing outcomes.
Through nearly two decades of experience as a school leader in the most under-resourced communities John has built highly effective teams to transform school communities in Washington DC, West Oakland, San Francisco, and Richmond.
Committed to testing his philosophy on teamwork, John embarked on a rowing project dubbed 'The Impossible Row' in 2019 from Chile to Antarctica with a team of six to become the first fully human powered vessel to cross the Drake Passage, setting five world records in the process.
