Executive coaching and management consulting for greater business success and personal fulfillment.
Become a more effective leader and achieve greater personal fulfillment at work and at home
Brian Degen, Managing Director
My work with senior leaders in achieving profound improvement is based on an effective combination of executive leadership experience, decades of professional coaching, and deep relationships rooted in authenticity and integrity. My approach is uniquely aimed at both dramatically improving business success while also increasing a leader’s sense of personal fulfillment and joy in their lives.
I specialize in coaching and advising executives, investors, and senior leaders in investor-backed companies drawing on a broad background in private equity investing, start-up company capital raising, and other buy- and sell-side M&A activities.
In addition to providing guidance on business strategy and execution, I also help clients bolster their ability to stay centered, productive, and inspirational in times of high stress. By replacing unconscious, conditioned, automatic reactions with thoughtful, insightful, and authentic responses, my clients become more effective leaders and achieve greater personal fulfillment at work and in your personal life.

Most leaders and businesses fail to reach their full potential not for lack of strategic vision, ambition, passion, product concept, competitive advantage, or market opportunity. The most difficult hurdles to success are most often tied to a lack of professional execution skills, and leadership challenges related to inspiring and gaining alignment among a diverse team with unique talents and motivations.
