Why We Do This
We’ve seen what is possible when change happens at the top. The DCC journey began when David Couper shifted his mindset and built new skills within his own organization. Sharing those tools is the passion of DCC as we lead you on the journey of transformation.
Our Results
Burnout is one of the top reasons people are leaving their jobs. In Healthcare this is leading to retention and recruitment issues. Our pilot with KP nursing got nothing but positive reviews, and our work with a regional healthcare organization helped them to get through the pandemic.
“I’m very grateful for the training and coaching we completed with David Couper Consulting. I know our teams would not have weathered Covid as well without the work we did to lay the groundwork for our leaders through the work with DCC. Thank you to David and his team for helping us with resources to weather the storm.”

Transformational Coaching – Unlike most coaching firms we don’t only help people to understand what to do to be successful but we help them understand why they’re not doing those things. Those limiting beliefs, judgments, and stories are often what stop leaders from growing.
“I was recommended to undergo this professional training and honestly, I did not have high expectations. However, to my surprise, after two sessions, I quickly learned that these sessions were remarkably helpful.  My coach helped me to realize each person has different strengths and together, we are stronger as a team. I truly enjoyed the training and this program has far exceeded all my expectations.“

As the leader of an executive team, working with my coach to compare and contrast my strengths with the strengths of each member of the team has helped to manage team interactions and assignments more effectively. I can guide discussions more effectively, and I can ensure the right people with the right strengths are assigned to the right tasks.

The greatest learning and beneficial insight I discovered through the DCC Coaching Program is the power of thoughtfully exploring situations deeply, not as they always present for a better outcome. I’ve experienced an increased attention to presence, mindfulness and self-care. I’m leading from the heart and head. I believe other employees and/or leaders would benefit in the ways I have through the coaching by learning techniques for responding vs. reacting during stressful work situations and personal, authentic accountability. -Carol Aaron, Senior VP of Culture and People,

David Couper delivered team building, communication, conflict resolution, diversity, and performance management coaching for us. He worked with frontline employees, supervisors, and managers. His delivery style and humor was exceedingly effective with these groups, especially the senior classes. He was flexible and responsive to our needs and greatly helped the roll out of our training programs.

The coaching program has exceeded all my expectations! It has made a tremendous difference every day that I'm at work. I have learned new skills to better communicate with my patients and my co-workers and have really experienced more joy and peace during the work day. This has also extended into a much more peaceful and less chaotic family life too. All the stress that I used to experience and then carry back home with me, now I know how to better manage those situations and not let them affect the rest of my day.

As a trainer, project manager, and coach, David has mastered the difficult and delicate balance required to keep tight deadlines, produce challenging, and creative work while, at the same time, act as a highly motivating influence on his teams and colleagues. I wholeheartedly recommend him for his coaching skills
Mary Jo Calderon
Ernst & Young (France)
I now know how to look for individual strengths within each of my team members and not assume that all people are the same or should be the same. I recognize that everyone has differing awareness levels and skill sets and I know how to meet them where they are and help bring out the best in what they have to offer our team and our company. I do this by seeing the big picture, yet I know how to break down the path to organizational change into baby steps now.
Stephanie
Coaching Program Participant, Kaiser Permanente Vision Essentials
Among David's vast skills is the ability to listen, and then ask the appropriate questions to help an individual find the correct answer. He is knowledge about people, workplaces, and all kinds of situations that workers face today. He is able to help people fully realize their potential. I value his expertise highly and would recommend him as a great resource to any organization.
