The essence of Doug’s work is built around the premise that the core of what makes an effective and inspiring leader cannot be taught, not in the traditional sense - it has to be brought out from within.Through “enter-trainment,” Doug provides inspiration and information, giving participants the opportunity to participate in their own discoveries. Through such engagement, valuable leadership insights occur that result in organizational tools which become immediately applicable. Doug’s primary focus is helping top executive teams - in both corporate and governmental arenas - generate and sustain the transformation in their thinking essential to successfully deal with today’s most pressing leadership challenges. With a diverse career as an entrepreneur and management consultant, Doug has proven skills for effectively and quickly creating powerful organizational results.
