ABOUT

Lonnie Gienger

Lonnie is a consummate entrepreneur, leader of his own multi generational family legacy, and CEO of the Wilkinson Corporation. In 2004, he partnered with his lifelong friend, Russ Wilkinson, to lead the strategic direction and growth of what has become a family of real estate related companies.

He facilitated the acquisition of Good Neighbor Care Centers, becoming its chairman of the board and then CEO assuming responsibility for expanding that company to more than 2,000 employees in 52 locations across the country by 2007. Today, he is leading the Wilkinson real estate team in building one of the top multifamily owner/operator companies in the country acquiring 3,000 to 5,000 apartment units per year.

Lonnie’s passion is developing effective leaders who build organizations that have a lasting, multi generational positive impact on society. You won’t be around him long until you catch his belief that business is the best platform to build a better world and family is the best pathway to build fulfilling legacy.

For the last 20 years, he has been the co-founder/chairman of two leadership development firms that have provided individualized coaching and training to thousands of executives around the world. And for the last 16 years Lonnie has been intentionally learning to lead his family as strategically as he leads businesses. He now coaches wealthy families and family offices around the world on processes to build high impact businesses and pathways to create multigenerational family legacy.

Lonnie has been married for 35 years to his childhood sweetheart and best friend, Shelley. Their four adult children and their spouses all own thriving businesses, which are bringing positive value to society.

As a family, they enjoy hiking, backpacking, mountaineering, snow skiing, water sports, farming, and creating and performing music together.

They reside at their lakeside lodge in the Cascade Mountains where they enjoy hosting retreats and coaching others on leadership, health, entrepreneurship, transformational commerce, and family legacy.
