What it’s like to Work with Us

— Carlton M., Esq.

“DGS’s executive coaching has changed my life! I had a singular goal: find my leadership voice. Although I came to Duffy for professional growth, he was focused on developing me as a holistic leader–showing up at work, at home, with family, or with friends. Unbeknownst to me, Duffy would accompany me on a transformational journey, unpacking this goal to fashion a personal leadership development plan with clear objectives, action items, and desired behaviors. This plan served as a roadmap to our sessions.

Next, I was equipped with key techniques to enhance my mental fitness that is a sustainable fuel source. Having Duffy navigate me through Positive Intelligence's 6-week intensive mental fitness course during one of the most turbulent times in my life was truly a gift and anchor that has grounded me. I simply do not know how I have managed life without it.

I am a better person, husband, father, son, brother, friend, and colleague. Duffy’s stellar military career enables him with a treasure of leadership and people knowledge. Duffy is an outstanding executive coach who will challenge you and encourage you while driving you to become the best version of yourself. It has not been easy, but I am so happy I made the investment!”
