DAVID BALLINGER, THE LEADERSHIP COACH

40 Years in Business, Military, Government, and Academia Have Led Me to These 3 Keys for “Inevitable” Success

My mission is to help individuals achieve their maximum performance in their personal and professional lives. I will help you improve your career focus, health and fitness, and quality of life.

If you want to lead your career and life in a new direction, then take action now, and get in touch with me.

People have so much potential.

But over time, our social and environmental conditioning can insidiously limit our progress. We are told we can’t do big things, and we believe it. Soon, we realize that our dreams are crushed.

The more I learn, the faster I move on the right track. I’ve learned to appreciate learning. It brings greater wisdom, judgment, and decision-making. Every day, I try to improve my psychological, psychosocial, and physical performance.

Coaching helps people re-discover their dreams, fix their problems, and point them back in the right direction. It can also help people find or regain momentum to get back on their path to success. That’s the purpose of The Leadership Coach.

Coaching is My Calling

Three Keys for Fixing Problems,
Making Success Inevitable

Four major roles I’ve held led me to coaching and the lessons for fixing life’s problems.

  • I have coached sports teams. This instilled the concepts of individual and organizational performance — and the many ways for both to succeed at the highest levels.
  • I have worked in high-performance organizations internationally. This gave me an appreciation of diverse talent to maximize team synergy.
  • As a military aviator and instructor, I experienced the impact of operating at peak psychological and physical levels from an individual, team, and organizational perspective.
  • As a mediator and conflict resolution specialist in the public and and private sectors, I help clients resolve their issues, utilizing my extensive training in emotional, social, and cultural intelligence.
How I Help You Redirect To Success
  • KEY #1 — Success is a measure of our “honest” efforts.
    Small changes can reap large rewards. Without a doubt, expert leadership coaching can spark the drive needed to achieve audacious goals. Honest effort combined with learned skills produces greater achievement.
  • KEY #2 — “Environments” impose limitations, and we need to remove constraints.
    I work closely with clients to deeply understand their unique situations — their needs and wants, their obstacles, and their goals. This results in a profound appreciation of how individuals can unknowingly be constrained by the psychological, psychosocial, and physical limitations imposed by their working and home environments.
  • Key #3—Problems are solved by taking “forward” steps. 
    Success requires hard work, self-discipline, determination, and grit. But all things are achievable to those who believe and act. A positive attitude and behavior can go a long way, compensating for a lack of skill.

An honest effort, freedom to act, and positive actions lead to significant progress — and thus results. It’s time for you to take action. Contact me now, and let’s start moving you in the right direction!
