Frequently Asked Questions

What is your typical booking window?

Dean's calendar typically fills 3-6 months in advance. For keynotes and workshops, we recommend reaching out 6+ months before your target date. Coaching clients can often start sooner.

Do you offer virtual engagements?

Yes. We offer keynotes, workshops, and coaching both in-person and virtually. Virtual options are ideal for distributed teams or when travel isn't feasible.

How do you customize presentations?

Every keynote and workshop is tailored to your organization's specific leadership challenges. Dean works closely with your planning team to ensure the content, examples, and exercises directly address your priorities.

What industries do you work with?

Dean's deepest experience is in healthcare. He has coached over 40 physicians one on one across the country, and before that spent thirteen years in the pharmaceutical industry, in thousands of conversations with physicians. He has also led leadership development for teams at AstraZeneca and Boehringer Ingelheim, and works with leaders in financial services, non-profit, and corporate organizations. The framework itself is industry-neutral, and every engagement is tailored to your context.

Can you work with our internal facilitator?

Yes — we co-design and co-facilitate with your internal leaders, so the language takes root inside your organization rather than leaving with the engagement. Independent internal delivery is a separate step: it requires formal facilitator certification, which we scope on its own once the foundation is in place.

What's the investment range?

Speaking and workshop fees are published on the Meeting Planners page, from $10,000 for a virtual keynote to $31,500 for a keynote plus a Full-Day Workshop, with a flat travel buyout. Coaching and organizational partnerships are scoped to the work, so we size those together in a first conversation.
