VerifiedKeith recently facilitated an unparalleled 4-day Leadership Week event for our Executive Management team in Los Angeles. With a relatively new group, some of which had never met in person before, it was critical that we walked out of the room feeling like a cohesive team. Through Keith's sessions centered around our DISC styles, incorporated with John Maxwell's leadership fundamentals, we walked out of the room on Friday feeling more aligned than we all could have pictured. Keeping a leadership team on track, and focused, is never easy but Keith's involvement as not only a facilitator, but an active participant in our discussions, allowed us to accomplish everything we set out to do. Between sessions, Keith made time to speak with a handful of our leaders regarding personal and professional development, which the team now has an eagerness to dive into. I know this will be the first of many engagements for us, and would recommend him to anyone with an interest in effective leadership, employee engagement, and other development initiatives for their teams. Thank YOU again, Keith!

His unique approach, which combines proven coaching techniques with a deep understanding of human behavior, allowed me to gain valuable insights into my strengths, weaknesses, and potential. He challenged me to think critically, step outside my comfort zone, and embrace new perspectives. His ability to ask thought-provoking questions and provide constructive feedback was invaluable. With his guidance and support, I was able to identify and overcome limiting beliefs, develop a clear vision for my future, and take decisive action to achieve my goals. The transformation I experienced under Coach Keith's guidance has been profound. I am more clear, confident, more resilient, and more fulfilled.

I can’t think of a more engaging speaker who manages to inspire, deliver insightful ideas that are accessible, practical & doable, and create hope. I walked away thinking differently about life/work, grounded in a clear path forward, and approaching great change with confidence. Because Keith’s thinking is memorable and actionable, it helped shift my mindset, specifically around my individual life/business challenges. Keith was definitely the highlight of our night.
