"...the actual differentiator in just about every job is attitude. From plumbers to carpenters to radiologists to pharmacists, someone with extraordinary soft skills (honesty, commitment, compassion, resilience, enrollment in the journey, empathy, willingness to be coached… the real skills that we actually care about) is going to outperform.” - Seth Godin
My Key Collaborators and Supportive Coaching Experts





Larry, you wouldn’t believe how many coaches there are, even ones like me who have invested tens of thousands of dollars in their coaching education and certification and have the highest of coaching credentials with all the initials after their name, who, once they have completed all that coursework never use it again. Your approach is life-changing and I am honored to be your coach.

After you encouraged me to go for it and I finished my graduate degree at Harvard we stood at the whiteboard in your office and mapped out how the A.C.O.M. Method could be a bridge from therapy and thera-coaching to the world of coaching. That dream has come true and I could not be more proud of you.

The world is once again at a crossroads.

We are seeing unprecedented chaos, intense division, civil unrest, and fear. We don't understand one another though we are more "connected" than ever before. Income gaps are widening and so are the generation gaps. But, this is also the place where hope is born. If chaos didn't exist neither would organization. We have a rare opportunity at this crossroads to make inroads for growth and development. In order to make that transformation and to become the leaders that will shift the direction our culture is heading we must move from reaction to response. We can. Many do and many more are moving towards it. Because at the crossroads of chaos and mayhem is also order and innovation. We are poised as both followers and leaders to know a peace that surpasses our understanding and be both confident and courageous. This puts us in a place to immediately calm our mechanisms and move our energies from reactive to responsive.
My work for the last few decades has been centered in just this space. With years of running a clinical practice as a psychotherapist,
I first noted these patterns. Along with a couple of other key concepts it's led me to success in publishing, founding, leading, and/or sitting on the board of leading non-profits and ministries, as well as consulting thought leaders in ministries and beyond on how to build the right culture for innovation with a message that's thousands of years old but never been more timely. We are at a crossroads and the world's asking for an answer to its chaos, division, unrest, and fear.
It's never been a better time to respond. I'm open for collaboration if you are!
