Ron Macklin discovered early that his passion wasn’t just engineering—it was leading high-performance teams. He went on to build record-setting organizations that increased profits by $20 million, won dozens of customer satisfaction awards, and became “best place to work” cultures. His teams didn’t just hit targets—they rewrote what success looks like. This realization led him on a 30-year journey that culminated in the creation of the 7-step MacklinConnection Method and the launch of MacklinConnection. 

Today, Ron is the president of MacklinConnection, overseeing our programs and extending the reach of the organization worldwide. He continues to lead programs and coach teams and individuals. A Wichita, Kansas native, Ron and his wife Koni have three adult children, Garrett, Lorin, and Brennan.

The MacklinConnection Method is a practical framework for leadership and business culture transformation. Built over 30+ years, it helps leaders build trust quickly, reduce workplace friction, and create teams that collaborate, communicate, and perform at a higher level. Unlike traditional leadership models, our method focuses on how humans actually connect—so you get real results that last.
