Dave’s 30+ years of experience as a CEO, management consultant, entrepreneur, and leadership coach have provided him with real-world understanding and perspective on both the challenges and the potential in being a leader. As a coach and strategist, Dave mentors leaders and leadership teams as they have courageous conversations, step into new roles, craft their direction together and deliver bigger results.

“Dave has a new approach I’ve never seen before. He brings focus and attention to many levels at once: Are we doing the right thing? How well is the team engaging? Am I showing up as the right leader for the moment for all the stakeholders?”
–GM for business unit of major internet company
Kristin founded Groupaya in 2010 after 20 years of working with luminaries in the fields of organizational learning and development, systems dynamics, scenario thinking, and leadership team effectiveness.
Despite experience in applying and developing a flood of frameworks and tools, the fundamental quality Kristin brings to clients is the capacity to BE with them, regardless of how challenging their situation appears to them. Kristin holds space for people to enter the conversations they need to have and develop the capacities they need to grow. Her presence stretches leaders — individually and collectively — into new ways of being that the world is calling for.
Kristin’s work has ranged from supporting C-level leaders, boards, leadership teams and organizations to multi-stakeholder groups in heated conflict. In the last 15 years, she has focused on visionary, purpose driven CEOs and their leadership teams. She loves helping people learn to create cultural and business results they did not previously imagine were possible.
Cyndi has been helping leaders, leadership teams, and organizations achieve ambitious goals for decades. Her clients are changemakers—visionaries and leaders of organizational and civic work oriented toward the greater good. She listens deeply so that she can reflect back the genius, strengths, and blindspots of individuals and teams, helping them move forward with purpose and inspiration. Cyndi brings extensive knowledge of human development and systems change to her work.
“Cyndi poses questions, builds capacity, and brings out the best in others. Working with Cyndi fosters a deep sense of trust, synergy, and sparks of creativity.”
