Coaching with Dr. Lance Secretan
Engaging Lance Secretan as a Coach and Mentor
Why do outstanding individuals and leaders hire a coach? Because they know that to reach their true potential, attain breakthrough results and live an inspiring life, they must stretch, grow and be courageous. It’s true in sports, the arts and in business. An exceptional and seasoned coach helps a client to do this by being objective—free of any agendas or bias—offering independent, yet sympathetic wisdom. Exceptional coaches help to identify possibilities, share helpful experiences and techniques, guide clients in “reading” people, suggest fresh or different perspectives, and the tools and processes to get there. Great coaches bring wisdom and unique gifts that come from experience. Dr. Lance Secretan has been voted among the top coaches in the world, and has been a top-level confidant, coach, and mentor to leaders from a wide variety of organizations (Microsoft, Kaiser-Permanente, Humana, BP, Herman-Miller, Korn-Ferry, etc.) and in different disciplines from all over the world. He brings:
- Wisdom”: Voted as one of the world’s foremost thinkers about leadership, he literally “wrote the book” on inspirational leadership. He is a renowned pioneer in innovative methods of inspiring people and organizations, and an award-winning author of 24 books on leadership and inspiration.

He knows about relationships too—his remarkable marriage is the subject of one of his bestselling books. He is grateful for a loving family and a wide circle of friends. People, including leaders, want to know Lance’s secrets—how he lives such a blessed life.
