Mr. Guion is a shareholder at Guion Partners, Inc., a global management consultancy based in New York City. Mr. Guion got his start in the business during the nineties, working as special consultant at the Entertainment and Media Law Firm of Blanc, Williams, Johnston and Kronstead, LLP. From there, he segued to the talent management arena—where he discovered and developed the five-man R&B vocal group Badd Boyz of the Industry for A&M Records.
