Dan is a phenomenal mentor! For years, I have let my career happen to me and have felt stuck in my professional development. Dan not only helped me clear the fog in my development journey, but also equipped me with tools/resources that helped jump-start action. I'm very grateful for Dan's leadership and recommend him to professionals craving strategic direction in their career development and leadership methods.

My company has invited Dan's organization with a goal of growing new skills to be a better leader and have more internal career options. Before we could focus on that goal, my company got acquired and I found myself in a new organization with all associated challenges and frustrations. Our sessions with Dan were then transformed into therapy addressing this situation. I am extremely grateful that Dan was around during this tough time. His guidance has made me to stay put during the transition, stay away from emotional moves and develop a plan forward in my future career and life overall. Dan maintains great balance between listening and speaking, between being nice guy and the guy who will push you towards action. I would trust him holding my hand through similar and other situations over and over again. His wisdom will set on a right path.

Whether you are casually exploring, actively desiring or unexpectedly experiencing change in your professional life, you will gain tremendous value from working with Dan.  Dan brings a diversity of experience, a deep understanding of people and organizations, and calm rationality that will help you cut through uncertainty and focus on actions that will help you grow as a professional. At the same time, he is highly empathetic and supportive in the way he provides feedback. He is extremely easy to work with, allows for a great deal of flexibility, but still high on accountability. Dan helped me understand how to advocate for myself and embrace change in my pursuit of professional growth. I highly recommend his services.

I’m incredibly grateful for the coaching I’ve received from Dan Roberts over the past 8–9 months. His insight, perspective, and deep expertise have been transformative in shifting my mindset and leadership approach. With Dan’s guidance, I’ve evolved from a reactive, technically focused leader into a more strategic and proactive one. Our sessions helped me step back from day-to-day tactical concerns and take a more intentional, high-level approach to leadership. His coaching has had a lasting impact, and I truly appreciate the clarity and direction he provided throughout the journey.

Dan was a great coach! We focused primarily on my EQ-Emotional Management as I prepare for next level leadership. Without Dan I would not be as confident as I am now. I would highly recommend Dan for anyone thinking about the next level and what it takes to get there.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Dan on a large IFS ERP project. When I reached out to a previous colleague asking for recommendations for a Change Leadership Advisor for my project; he didn’t hesitate to recommend Dan. From the onset of our first conversation, I found Dan to be engaging, attentive and very approachable. During our time together, he exhibited strong listening and observational skills that he then applied to coach the leaders through the extensive transition that was ahead; always quick to listen to concerns and make himself available to address any challenge. Dan’s deep well of experience, along with his varied background, allow him to effectively communicate at all levels of the organization. I would recommend him to any leaders that are navigating and leading change.

I am a Business Manager and manage teams of nuclear professionals, which is a very high-stress position. I encountered Dan Roberts from a recommendation of a trusted peer, as I was discussing the challenge I was having of finding the balance between being an effective Leader and still ensuring that I was also giving time to my own needs; emotionally, physically and mentally. Dan has a very grounded style of Coaching and it worked well for me. Dan doesn’t TELL you what to do instead he engages you with discussion and guidance that leads you to creatively go where you thought you had no reserves left to go! Dan helped me to gain tools to improve my emotional intelligence, which has helped me immensely to have a better relationship with my teams, be more effective at motivating them and bringing my own stress levels down. Dan clearly has a plethora of knowledge and experience in lifting executives to a higher level of creative thinking and stress management. I would absolutely recommend Dan Roberts as a highly capable and intuitive Coach/Advisor.

Dan Roberts is an amazing leader, change management guru, and human. I had the pleasure of working for him for two years, during which we were focused on readiness, adoption, and sustainment of Agile at Wells Fargo.  Dan is the epitome of a servant leader and coach. In his role as my manager, I felt heard, supported, and appreciated. He always asked, “How can I help?” I trusted Dan fully and felt certain that he always had my back.  From a change management/leadership perspective, Dan has extensive experience/expertise and is able to balance the strategy and vision setting of a transformational change with the tactics of how work gets done and how people may respond to the change. His efforts to build relationships and create a change network resulted in not only better business outcomes, but also a place where colleagues felt safe to show up, to share, and to learn and develop. Additionally, Dan is one of the most tenacious and dedicated people I know. Despite working on ambiguous tasks and in a challenging environment, he continually and constantly sought to make things clearer and better.  Finally, Dan is an extraordinary human. He is kind, empathetic, and seeks to help and be there for others. It was truly a pleasure to work with him.

From the day I started Dan , reached out, made me feel very welcomed, and became a great partner in the transformation we were both playing a lead role in. First and foremost Dan is engaging, kind and thoughtful. Alongside those great interpersonal skills,Dan is a thought leader in the Change Management field. He gets it. Change happens all around us, and we so often focus on getting the change done, without giving thought to the actual mechanisms of change. This is where Dan excels. He is a leader in enabling organizations to lay out and then manage through the change, gaining insight and support from senior leaders and through their teams. He understands the impact, the need for ongoing communication (not one and done), the people side, and looks to deliver clear, and effective, change communications throughout. Dan taught me a great deal on how to effectively manage and communicate the needs and demands of effective organizational change management. A leader in this space and someone I would love to work with again.
