Doug Thorpe's Transformation

Doug Thorpe

During the financial crisis of 2007-2010, I started a non-profit to assist job seekers who had found themselves out of work, many for the first time in their lives. I was facing a growing crowd of baby boomers who had never had to look for a job. Among the many initiatives we started and spawned, one made particular sense. I had used the Greenlight principles that first emerged then to encourage my attendees to form their own Greenlight groups. We had several groups start and most became very successful at meeting together, building accountability, and making things happen for one another.
