Bio
Kimberly Wolf
Dean has recently provided two webinars to EMC members in my consortium. He was easy to work with to plan the events, and the resulting presentations were relevant, compelling, and professional. He has a vast amount of experience and shares that experience through real-life scenarios. My members have learned a lot of applicable information from Dean. I would recommend him to any company looking for expertise in workplace investigations and mediation.

Dean is the consummate professional and a pleasure to work with. He takes time out of his day and makes you feel like your meeting is the most important one of his day. It's one of the reasons why I also asked him to appear on our podcast. That particular episode was very well received! Just a pleasure.
