ELEVATE how you think, work, and lead
You don’t need another framework or motivational push. You need space for clarity and practical application. This is where you challenge yourself honestly and lead with intention when the stakes are real.
Our work together is grounded in experience, not theory. Results, not promises.
executive coaching for high-performance Leaders
I work with senior leaders in wealth management, professional services, and other high-trust environments who want growth, scale, and legacy without losing who they are in the process.
Identify what separates you from others. This clarity shapes your decisions, priorities, and how you show up as a leader.
Know Your Edge
Lead With Precision
Align decisions and priorities with your values so you can stay grounded, even in complex environments.
Build a LEGACY
Create systems and habits that support long-term performance and sustainability.
The Approach That Actually Holds Under pressure
You have a goal. I help you reach it, guaranteed.
Most coaching starts with the business: strategy, metrics, and team issues. But after three decades of leading organizations, I've learned something simple:
If you don't start with the leader, the results don't hold.
Lasting results come from consistent, honest work that aligns with who you are as a leader. That focus is why I work with only three leaders per quarter, ensuring the work is personal, disciplined, and built to last.
This work only works when we’re aligned and focused on the results that matter most to you without burning out. I stand behind that not with promises, but with partnership and accountability.
If we don’t achieve the outcomes we agree on, I don’t expect to be paid.
Let's make sure we're the right fit for one another.
Results, Guaranteed.

High-performance leadership isn’t about hype. It’s about responsibility. Making decisions that affect people, performance, and outcomes over time.
I work with leaders carrying real weight—growth, expectations, and complexity—who want support grounded in experience, not theory.
After three decades of building teams and navigating hard times, I’ve learned a simple truth:
You can't sustain success if it costs you your well-being.
This work strengthens your leadership without sacrificing what matters most – your health, your values, and your ability to lead for the long term.

“[Steve’s] approach allowed me to stay true to my personal values while making my daily behaviors exactly that–behaviors that have now become a natural part of my routine, how I support the team, and how I am leading the firm.

Steve Helped Me Stay True to Who I Was
Hi, I'm Steve
At the top, the answers matter. The challenge is arriving at good ones when information is incomplete, tradeoffs are real, and the consequences extend beyond you.
I work with leaders who are navigating growth, expectations, and complexity, and who value having an experienced, outside perspective when the decisions matter.
A few facts for context:
- 30+ years in executive and senior leadership roles
- Built, scaled, and sold a multi-location services business
- Led organizations supporting more than 200,000 people annually
- Executive coach to CEOs, founders, and senior leadership teams
Today, I work with executives who want to sharpen their thinking, pressure-test decisions, and lead with intention as the stakes increase.
This work isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about leading in a way that reflects who you already are, but with more clarity, stamina, and purpose.

You bring the audience, I’ll bring the stories, strategy, and a few laughs along the way.
I teach leaders how to stop winging it and start owning a leadership style built for growth and legacy. From burnout to influence, accidental leaders to executive teams, I break down complex ideas into practical takeaways people actually remember (and use).
If you want your event to spark real conversations, let’s talk.
