Leaders Who’ve Been Transformed

"Dwayne is organized, honest, patient, insightful, and kind. He helped me see where I was getting in my own way, while also helping me see workplace dynamics more clearly (the challenges weren’t just in my head). He helped me translate feelings into facts, make a clear case for my role, and communicate the work and values that were most important to me. With his coaching, I was able to have a series of conversations with my boss that weren’t easy, but were respectful and ultimately very productive."

—Laura Smith, CMTP
" I can personally speak to the impact Dwayne Rumber has had on people’s careers. While I was at the U.S. Department of Education, he took me under his wing and helped me move from feeling stuck and over managed into a leadership role where I was able to grow and excel. His guidance and belief in people truly make a difference. Well deserved and I highly recommend Coach Rumber's coaching. 👏
