⚡ Friction, drift, flat motion—it’s not stuck, it’s waiting.
Why Dan
Clarity without ego. Strategy without fluff. Momentum that’s fueled from within.
The presenting problem is rarely the real one. Teams may point to culture. Leadership may cite process.
But underneath the noise is a system misfiring—just enough to erode clarity, slow momentum, and drain energy.
This is where I step in: pattern recognition, sharp diagnosis, and a reflex for surfacing signal fast.
How I Move the Needle
- Cut through noise to capture what matters
- Turn ambiguity into a clear target and aligned direction
- Use radical honesty to spark real change
- Blend strategy, ops, and human dynamics
- Build momentum that sticks and scales
