How to Apply OKR Leadership

Doug is a great leadership coach who is able to take day to day manager/supervisor concerns and translate them into leadership learning opportunities. His ability to help me see the simple message in what seemed like a complex issue was of tremendous value in helping me grow as a leader. I recommend Doug to anyone needing an independent and calming view of management tactics in high pressure situations. And for years now I have relied on Doug's communication wheel, a tool that every manager should have in their back pocket.

Doug is a conscientious, thoughtful, and reliable coach and people development consultant. He makes his clients and colleagues a priority and is always focused on ensuring he is bringing value. It has been my pleasure to get to know and spend time with Doug.

Doug is great at understanding the individual and working with them to advance their careers based on their individual personalities and aspirations. This obviously impacts the individual, but also promotes effective communication and improvements at the company where they work. Doug is also effective at the team level as well.

I've had the great pleasure of working with Doug on a number of occassions in leadership development and problem solving environments. Doug is outstanding at bringing leadership philosophies and techiniques to real world problems. Doug's coaching style provides his clients the confidence to tackle the most challenging leadership issues and achieve immediate results. I am grateful for his guidance and mentoring.

Doug and I are acquantances from years back. Doug provided guidance on marketing and prioritizing business start-up activities when I first started my firm. Since then, he and I have collaborated on business issues and I have benefited greatly from his knowledge and insight. I highly recommend Doug for impoving efficiency, goal setting and accountability, and business management development within the workplace.

Doug provided coaching for me during a time when I needed to triage a number of competing challenges in my life. He gently but firmly insisted on my confronting issues head on, and he introduced organizational and communication strategies which helped me complete a large project at work, and to make progress in personal development. Doug is a pro.

Doug was able to provide actionable ideas that were tailored to the needs of me and my staff. Through the implementation of his ideas we were able to increase our results and deepen the relationships we have have with our clients.

Doug Gray came into my career as a personal Coach. In the beginning I was not convinced of the value but it did not take long to realize the huge value associated with Mr Gray. He took me outside of my comfort zone which helped my versatility. He helped make sense of a crazy business world and educated me on how to be a consistant thinker and doer. I would recommend Mr. Doug Gray to any friend or colleague who wants to open their mind and put to use their experience while getting out of your comfort zozne. Thanks Doug for all of your experience and friendship.

Having not really seen the benefit in career coaching from my previous two experiences I didn't hold out much hope for change when my boss hired a new coach, that was until I started to work with Doug.
Doug's approach allowed a cynic (that would be me) to open up a whole new world of opportunities through support, encouragement, guidance and enlightenment.
Doug's sessions are extremely relevant, timely, goal oriented and enjoyable. Some of the techniques introduced by Doug have not only been of great use in my prfessional career but have assisted me outside of my working life when needing to evaluate options.
Doug helped me to far exceed my expectations in my working life for my employer.
Ultimately Doug helped to equip me to be able to be well positioned and to take advantage of "life changing opportunities" resulting in me securing my dream position for a global market leader.
I would not hesitate in recomending Doug Gray highly and will certainly be seeking to use his professional services in my new career for both me and my team.
