At age 3, Tim Hebert had big dreams of becoming a superhero. He had all the characteristics needed to be successful—a strong moral compass, a love of adventure, and a desire to have an impact on the world. Somewhere along the way—after many failed attempts to fly—Tim learned that superpowers come in all shapes and sizes and that his special power was igniting the leadership spark in those around him.
As a business owner, national speaker, and published author, Tim has defined the principles surrounding intentional leadership over the past three decades. As CEO and President of Atrion, a leading IT services firm, he grew this company to $170 million with over 260 employees. Under Tim’s tenure, Atrion was named a “Best Places to Work” companies for seven straight years, recognized on the Inc. 5000 List of fastest-growing private companies eight years in a row and named to CRN’s Fastest Growing Companies and Top Managed Service Providers List.
In 2016, Tim founded his 19th company Trilix, a consulting firm. He also launched the ON Leadership Symposium in 2019, uniting professionals to dive into the principles of intentional leadership.
Tim’s work has been recognized all over. He received an Honorary Ph.D. in Business from Rhode Island College and the Distinguished Citizens Award – Boy Scouts of America Narragansett Council. The Rhode Island Foundation recognized him with the Carter Inspiring Partner Award in 2019. The Providence Business News recognized him to the Top 25 Over 55 list in 2019, and as Business Leader of the Year in 2012. He also received the Latino Public Radio – 2016 Corporate Community Excellence Award.
Tim has keynoted and led workshops all over the country, including NERCOMP’s annual conference, the RISE Leadership Symposium, the SUNY Council CIO Group, the annual Board of REALTORS Conference, and the Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England. His published works have appeared on IDG Contributor Network, BTOES Insights, Channel Reseller and CRN.

He also serves on the Board of Directors for Apogee IT, Medicus IT, Thielsch Engineering, and Commerce RI. Tim has served his country as a member of the United States Air Force.
When he is not busy speaking, writing, and running several companies, you’ll find him seeking out his next big climb (South America might be next!), hopping a plane to explore someplace new and making sure his stock of Diet Coke is always full.
