Grounded in reality.
Inspired by what's possible.
The thinking partner behind the work.
Dana Meyer, MBA - Executive Coach and Strategic Advisor
I work with leaders who take their work seriously, and who know that the quality of their thinking, their decisions, and their relationships determines everything else. My role is to be the trusted partner who helps you see more clearly, decide more deliberately, and lead more effectively. Not by telling you what to do, but by asking the right questions, offering honest perspective, and staying in it with you for the long haul.
My Unique Approach
My background is unusual in the best way. I spent fourteen years in senior leadership at Raytheon, one of the world's largest aerospace and defense companies, advising executives and helping leaders at every level navigate large-scale change, strategic growth, and the daily complexity of running a business. I know what it feels like to make decisions under pressure, to manage competing priorities, and to lead through uncertainty without a clear playbook. And I know how to help others do the same. That experience is what I bring to every client engagement.
Professional Background
I launched my consulting practice in 2014, first in Santa Barbara, California and now from Hood River, Oregon.
I hold an MBA in Global Management and Organizational Change from Thunderbird, the American Graduate School of International Management, and two bachelor's degrees from the University of Minnesota. I am also a top graduate of Raytheon's two-year Leadership Program. Read my complete profile on Linkedin.
CLIENT PERSPECTIVES
What leaders say
“Whatever I write about Dana will only scratch the very surface of what she is all about and the impact that she makes. Some people have intangible capabilities that need to be experienced to really be understood. Dana is one of those people. She is one of the most well-rounded, sincere, intelligent, and caring individuals I have met, and I have personally seen her accomplish remarkable and lasting success in some of the most challenging business environments.”
“The end result matters, but so does how you get there. Dana gets there the right way and will help you to do the same. ”
“I want to let you know how impactful your session was. I’ve been doing a lot of self-reflection as a result and finding many things applicable, not just in the workplace, but how I move through the world. You are the real deal.”
