Jerry Rutter

Jerry Rutter is Co-Founder and Chief Growth Officer of Wavelength Labs. He co-founded MindWire alongside Tom Riggs and serves as its President. He has spent decades in human capital management, designing and delivering behavioral programs for leaders and sales professionals across a wide range of industries.

Jerry works on one specific problem. People can understand perfectly well that others communicate differently and still fail to adapt in the moment. Understanding is not the same as doing. Closing that gap is a design problem, which is the part that interests him.

At Wavelength Labs he leads program design and the multi-rater leadership assessment used in the High Voltage Leadership Lab. What holds his attention: emotional intelligence as a trainable skill, the hidden strengths and blind spots that show up in assessment data, and what separates leaders people want to work for from the rest.
