Andrew Neitlich ~ Executive Coach Certification

I've had the pleasure of observing Devon coach successful professionals and leaders through a variety of challenges. She is thoughtful, patient, and guides her clients to have new insights to move forward. She is an expert at coaching people in STEM organizations, with a focus on team dynamics, conflict management and strengths-based leadership. Even with this focus, I highly recommend Devon to any leader or team that is committed to achieving the highest levels of performance.

Juan Meraz, MBA, Ph.D., CDP
