Principal@The Gorilla Coach

What is a Gorilla Coach? It’s someone who can deal with the "Gorilla in the Room" who is part elephant in the room, that problem no one wants to talk about, and part 800 pound gorilla, that can leave your team wondering what just happened to them. I help organizations go from the chaos of creativity to the success of sustainable delivery of value. I start where you are "now" and guide you to a "new better" without tossing out all the learning and good culture you already have.
