The Blue Wren Foundation 'Advisory Board'
This Advisory Board has been established to help support and guide The Blue Wren Foundation as it builds and expands. Each Board Member is on the Board in a volunteer capacity. Their personal and professional 'advice' is welcomed and is taken into consideration when decisions have to be made.
The Advisory Board Members are:
George Green - Chairperson
Originally hailing from Cleveland, Ohio in the United States, George, a father of 3 young children, has resided in Southeast Queensland since 2008. With a professional background steeped heavily in Commercial/Industrial Construction Management, his interest in the field of Men's Health from an emotional and mental health point of view started from the 'Mates in Construction' course work, which shined a light on how many men are dealing with overwhelming emotional issues, and feel as if there is nowhere to turn for help.
However, it was in learning to deal with his own struggles in his own household that turned, what was merely an interest, into George's passion. After his active participation and from his graduating through an 8 week 'SuperDads' Online Program, a resource for dads worldwide, and two Blue Wren 'Line in the Sand' programs, George has now committed himself to help other families learn how to cultivate and maintain conscious and mindful relationships, and further stay on the path of growth and enlightenment. As member of the Blue Wren Advisory Board, George hopes to further those goals.
With his management, team building and communication skills George will help to lead the Advisory Board and The Blue Wren Foundation forward in his position as Chairperson.
