“I first met Doug while volunteering together at the World Cup Freestyle and he quickly showed not only is he a people person, but as his skills at organizing and getting things done are impeccable. I later engaged his services to speak to our SWAN networking group and he was so well received we had him back a second time. Later I hired him as a Coach and Doug was professional, offered great insight, gave me clear concise guidance and held me accountable for what really needed to be done. I would recommend Doug for coaching, training and public speaking… a dynamic energy about this man, he is not someone you would soon forget!”

“Doug arrived in London in the midst of critical and difficult contract negotiations with my company’s largest client. He quickly got up to speed and helped me to identify additional strategies to communicate the value of our work and our hopes for expanding this relationship. Doug sat in on our negotiation meeting the following day and facilitated the conversation, ensuring the client fully understood what was being proposed … Not only were we successful in renewing our original contract but two additional ones as well. Thanks Doug!”

He found ways to make me think of things in a different way and to try new ways of accomplishing tasks that I was struggling with.
