Cliff is most passionate about helping teams and organizations through transformations, enabling them to succeed in new levels of complexity.  Supporting leaders in their ability to rise to the challenges of rapid change when prior ways of leading seem to fall short is some of the most joyful work he does.  He believes those who find deeper connection to their purpose and practice ways of deepening their self-awareness are able to see and let go of beliefs and assumptions limiting their effectiveness as leaders.  He finds joy in helping others look inward with courage to encounter what holds them back to release themselves from what hinders their greatness.

His practice ranges from online and in-person leadership program design and delivery  as well as executive and team/cohort coaching.   He is trained in Presence-based and Growth Edge coaching methods, also is certified to use Leadership Circle framework of assessments and the MBTI. He is also a member of the global faculty for Leadership Circle Certifications.

Cliff has a deep affection for the wilderness and loves backpacking in the Pacific Northwest of the US as well as adventuring in many other places.  He and his partner live, work and play together variously in Washington State and the Philippines. And, he has never met a dog he didn’t like.
