Tom Hicks

Tom Hicks doesn’t do trust falls or stale PowerPoint decks; he builds leaders who are capable of keeping ten things in the air without dropping the ball.

After two decades navigating the complex layers of higher education, Tom Hicks realized that the most effective teams aren’t the ones with the most meetings; they’re the ones who have mastered the art of high-stakes agility.

As the founder and self-described “Chief Juggling Officer” of Throw & Catch Consulting, Tom has spent over 20 years dismantling the standard script for professional development by blending deep psychological reflection with the physical science of play.

He doesn’t just tell stories; he creates active-learning environments where teams “play with a purpose” to build deeper, more resilient connections. Whether he’s working with campus administrators or corporate executives, Tom turns the chaos of the modern workplace into a masterclass in focus and flow.

Are you done doing the same old thing and ready to incorporate high-velocity growth? Tom is here to help you synchronize your team and empower you to handle whatever the market throws your way.
