BAYONNE, NJ, June 03, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Richard Jack III has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Mr. Jack has dedicated his career to making a significant impact in the lives of young people, drawing from his own experiences growing up in Baylor, New Jersey. In 2015, he launched Gentlemen By Choice Community Development Corporation as the nonprofit organization's chief executive officer and executive director. In this capacity, Mr. Jack has been instrumental in organizing training programs for young men, reaching out to schools to identify students needing extra help. His structured and disciplined approach, informed by his military background and counseling skills, has created a supportive environment that has significantly improved student behavior and academic performance. Mr. Jack's efforts have impacted individual students and made a substantial difference in the community.

Gentlemen by Choice Community Development Corporation was created to help young men in the community who need guidance. The organization teaches life skills, leadership, and personal development to support young men in becoming responsible adults. Since the corporation's start, its program has expanded to include Ladies by Choice, which also helps young women.

Mr. Jack began his career in the U.S. Air Force in 1986, where he achieved the rank of master sergeant and served as an air traffic controller before retiring in 2007. He then transitioned into education as a school counselor, where he quickly identified leadership and guidance issues affecting young men. This realization led Mr. Jack to collaborate with the school dean to develop a program focused on teaching young men how to embody the qualities of gentlemen.

Critical in his professional journey, Mr. Jack obtained a Bachelor of Science in business management from the University of Phoenix in 2007, followed by a Master of Business Administration in 2008. In 2012, he completed a Master of Science in counseling/school counseling and guidance services on campus. These academic achievements have equipped him with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in educational and organizational settings.

In addition to his formal education, Mr. Jack has pursued various professional credentials that have further enhanced his capabilities. He is a certified Resilience Coach through Mindpower Coaching Academy, a certified high-performance coach from the High Performance Institute, a certified trainer with The Gurian Institute, and a certified NLP practitioner through Nisada Coaching LLC. These designations reflect Mr. Jack's commitment to personal development and desire to provide practical tools for success.

An accomplished author, Mr. Jack published "The GBC Way" in 2022. This work encapsulates his philosophy and approach to mentoring young people, offering insights into the frameworks and mindsets contributing to success.

Looking ahead, Mr. Jack envisions continuing his work in the nonprofit sector as a chief executive officer while adapting his approach to meet the evolving needs of communities following the COVID-19 pandemic. He aims to build a healthy online community that serves both youth and their parents, addressing disconnects in inner-city schools and rural areas regarding the importance of education. Additionally, as a high-performance coach, Mr. Jack seeks to introduce concepts of self-development and growth to communities where they are less frequently discussed.
