Jason Hill
Lead facilitator and curriculum lead.
Jason Hill helps men stop blowing up the relationships in their lives.
For years, Jason delivered gender, sexuality, and workplace culture training for HR teams and employees at organizations including Disney, Sony, AEG, Trader Joe's, Starbucks, UCLA, and On Board Experiential.
His trainings addressed gender equality, sexual harassment, LGBTQ+ competency, and more ethical hiring practices for marginalized groups. But the deeper Jason went into this work, the more he noticed a critical gap.
Organizations were talking about how women and marginalized people experienced the workplace. Very few were talking directly to men about how they had been conditioned to communicate, respond to conflict, exercise power, or protect themselves when they felt criticized, embarrassed, rejected, or disrespected.
Men were expected to know how to build trust, navigate difficult conversations, repair misunderstandings, and lead people who experienced the world differently than they did. But most had never been taught how.
Instead, many had been socialized to hide uncertainty, suppress vulnerable emotions, avoid asking for help, become defensive when challenged, and treat conflict as something to win. These patterns did not stay inside individual men. They shaped entire teams, management cultures, and prevailing definitions of “professionalism.”
Many workplace conflicts were not caused by a lack of intelligence or good intentions. They were caused by relational skill gaps nobody had named, combined with protective patterns nobody knew how to interrupt.
Jason launched Beyond The Man Box to directly address that missing piece.
For the past five years, Jason has also coached men one-on-one, helping them understand the reactions that damage their relationships at work, at home, and within themselves. His work helps men recognize what happens inside them before they become defensive, aggressive, controlling, withdrawn, or emotionally unavailable, then gives them practical tools to respond differently.
Through Beyond The Man Box, Jason is turning his experience in organizational training, advocacy, enterprise sales, and one-on-one coaching into a practical methodology for understanding the connection between male socialization, relational intelligence, conflict, leadership, and trust.
You are not blowing up your relationships because you are incapable of change. You are repeating protective patterns you were never taught how to see.
