What Clients Say
“Dana offers an incredible blend of personal and professional development in her coaching. I hired Dana to help me navigate the complexity of managing from the middle in higher ed. She brought the right balance of empathy and accountability to our coaching sessions and helped me make multiple breakthroughs in my management style. I was so impressed with her 1:1 coaching, I also invested in a leadership development course with her. Working with Dana was an incredible experience, and I highly recommend her coaching to anyone looking to grow in their career.”

“I started working with Dana more than two years ago. I wanted to increase my strategic capacity in my role as Vice President, Program Operations. I write this now as the President, a promotion I couldn’t have imagined, but one that with Dana’s coaching and leadership development became an obvious next step for our company and for me. Recently, our company contracted with Dana to work with our leadership team to integrate OKRs as a goals framework. Dana has stuck by us as we figure this out. I’m indebted and grateful to her for what she has made possible for me and our company and for her determination and commitment to center women in positions of leadership.“

“I have worked with Dana for 2+ years, and continue to learn so much from every one of our conversations. Last year she guided me as I was working towards a promotion. As I balance my varied portfolio of job responsibilities, including supporting new business development and delivering against current business needs, Dana continues to provide a fresh perspective on how to approach any business situation or problem I am encountering. Her advice has helped me negotiate key business relationships and navigate challenging meetings and business dilemmas. I rely on her to help me get clear on my goals and determine the best way forward. Her advice always pays off!”

Women in leadership positions often spend so much energy accomplishing amazing things, they don’t have the time to share their experiences with each other. They feel alone.

When smart, driven women come together, every participant is lifted. I want this community to be supportive and challenging. Fun and informative. Interactive and reflective. Most of all, I want us all to have a place to come to share our personal perspectives and leave expanded and uplifted. ~ Dana Theus, Coach-Moderator
