About Dan
I have been in business for over 30 years working to develop talent working with me. As a division head then division president for Panasonic I learned how to be successful by making others reach there potential. Along the way I benefitted from coaches and got my coaching certification in 2016. Since then I have been coaching-- from college students to small business leaders and those in larger corporations. The goal is always the same—do what the client wants to reach their goals and serve their values.
Why do I coach?
I had many great bosses, academic teachers, and developed leaders under me who ended up allowing me to achieve and exceed my career goals. I had two “real” coaches along the way and they were invaluable. Empowering me, while also helping me identify the relationship between goals, values, your work, your life. I respect the art of coaching and also understand many of the real world’s challenges at work. So I want to use my experience and trainign to help individuals be happy, fulfilled, and also achieve the balance in life they seek.
