A. Geoffrey “Geoff” Crane is a Canadian public speaker, researcher and entrepreneur. As with a lot of young professionals, when Geoff began his career he had little experience to draw from. Unceremoniously thrown into a job as project manager, he was forced to navigate on his own through the job’s uncertainty and the interpersonal conflicts that arose between competing stakeholders.

Bringing these hard lessons to academic life, Geoff has become a thought leader studying emotional intelligence within the project management space. He recently graduated from Trent University with a Master's degree in Applied Modelling in Quantitative Methods and the President's Medal for his extensive outreach work.
