Darren led an amazing coaching session for a group of emerging engineers. My favorite part of his presentation was the short improve game we played that really showed us the impact behind saying yes or no to ideas and how the intent of that response is meaningful. He is energetic, knowledgeable, and passionate about helping people. He is able to meet people where they are and help them understand how they can best elevate themselves to achieve where they want to be in their profession. I'd absolutely recommend him to anyone who is looking for a coaching session that will keep you captivated, make you laugh, and leave you with a thought-provoking lasting impression.

I had the pleasure of connecting with Darren at a networking event and was impressed by his ability to make you feel like a longtime friend rather than someone you just met. We remained in touch over the years and I recently had the opportunity to work with him as my career coach. I have been a fan of his LinkedIn posts, his writing style, the lessons he shares and his wit. It seemed natural to connect with him as a career coach as well.

Darren has a unique ability to comfortably get you out of your comfort zone. He will challenge you to think differently; he asks insightful questions to help you probe your inner thoughts and look at where you want to be. He combines life lessons with job search lessons to make for well-rounded coaching sessions.

Darren provided invaluable input on my resume as well as interview skills. He is a accomplished career and life coach and if you are in a place where you feel stuck or just need that nudge to keep you moving forward in your search, I highly recommend working with Darren.

I connected with Darren at an inflection point in my life - personally and professionally. I am so grateful our paths intersected. Darren coached me through the intensive Positive Intelligence program, which propelled me into a course correction in how I navigate relationships and approach challenging situations. Darren’s support gave me the confidence to explore an exciting new path in my career. Thank you for everything, Darren!

I had the opportunity to work with Darren through a career development program for HR professionals this past year and it couldn't have been more timely for me as I was unhappy in my current role/organization, but felt really stuck in making a move. Darren took the time to not only listen to what I had to say in terms of what was important to me and what I thought I wanted, but was also able to read between the lines with ease and probe me to dig further. During the course of our work together over 6 months, Darren helped me get really clear on my values & goals and tackling the job search & interview process. The skills I learned in my work with Darren helped me to go into interviews more confidently AND most importantly, feel comfortable with taking my time in the job search process to ensure I chose the right organization whose mission, culture and values aligned with mine.

Additionally, even after our sessions ended through the program, Darren made himself available as a resource and helped guide me through a counter-offer discussion that yielded a fantastic sign-on bonus!

I would highly recommend Darren - he is transparent, authentic and will push you to think differently and get honest with yourself in order to move forward in your goals.

Darren's guidance has been valuable to my job search journey. He provided advice on crafting a compelling resume and an engaging cover letter, helping me stand out in a competitive market. He offered a wealth of resources from interview tips to networking strategies. I highly recommend Darren to anyone at the beginning stages of their job search.

Work with Darren!

I was fortunate to work with Darren during the pandemic. Like many people in the pandemic era I was going through a season of change as it related to my career. I was lacking confidence and clarity in what my next career move was going to look like. Darren provided tools that enabled me to articulate my story, rebuild my confidence, and get clear on my next career move.

He also introduced me to Positive Intelligence - which I still use today in my work.

I really appreciated his focus on mindset and getting clear on my personal values and goals and then making sure that aligned for my next role. An excellent coach to work with if you are looking for a holistic approach to your career journey!

Darren is an incredible coach, leader and mentor. I have had the privilege of working with him throughout the past year as my leadership coach and then he was our moderator through the Positive Intelligence program. As my leadership coach, he was always curious and inquisitive and helped me dig to the root of the challenges I was facing as a leader. And although he is helpful in making suggestions when I was coming up blank, he was very encouraging to help me develop my own thoughts and solutions. I would also HIGHLY recommend working with him through the Positive Intelligence program. This program helped me to sort through a number of deep rooted challenges I was facing both personally and professionally. Darren is genuine and caring and is phenomenal at what he does. I highly recommend working with him!

I participated in an intensive Positive Intelligence coaching program with Darren and the experience was incredibly rewarding. Darren’s coaching style is authentic and down-to-earth. He helped our group understand the concepts and apply them to our lives and work immediately. He never made us feel judged when we were struggling, and he authentic shared his own experiences. I would not hesitate to recommend Darren (and I have to many, many people already). I believe his work will become a critical tool for forward-thinking corporations who want to support employee wellness—especially in our modern, turbulent times.
