Dr. Will Ramey
The Scholarly Leadership PractitionerHelping you and your team achieve success together
Hi I’m Dr. Will Ramey. Being a leader can be stressful. It’s like being on stage every day. Taking on a new role, transitioning to a new team, managing time, resolving conflicts, bringing people together around a collective purpose and common goal are all sources of stress. Let me help bring out your best and provide you with the confidence, knowledge, and abilities you need to lead, thrive and make a positive impact on your team.
I draw from 20 years of leadership experience as a former Officer in the U.S. Army, a Leader for a Fortune 100 Company, and a Senior Leader in the Government Sector.
Having spent time researching leadership behaviors and team dynamics in organizations, I pull in the latest science from the field of organizational behavior, leadership, and team dynamics in order to provide evidence-based solutions for you.
My Approach
We merge the latest academic research with proven applicable practices. We help bring out your best by listening, learning, and leading you towards your desired goal. We want to help you to empower your teams and elevate performance.
As a leader, time is a precious resource. Once it’s spent you don’t get it back. Our programs are designed to help you identify where you want to be and provide engaging activities that lead to sustainable learning. We maximize the time spent together during programs. Whether it be one-on-one, in a cohort or team, the setting is built to be a distraction free, safe environment to dive into your goals where you currently are, identify opportunities to take, and clearly capture what you are willing to do to take the next step. In between sessions there will be learning activities and engagements to provide you an opportunity to make progress towards your goals and sustain what you are learning.
We want to help bring out your best regardless of what position or title you hold, because the impact you have via relationships with team members resonates beyond work.
My Story
My journey to becoming a leader & team development practitioner has taken me from being an organizational leader to bringing out the best in organizational leaders. I have gained hard earned experience in the military and commercial industries and have relentlessly pursued furthering my education. The knowledge acquired and experience I’ve gained combined with my desire to serve others and help bring out your best have led me to where I am today. I want to be your development coach to help you reach your full potential so we can all be successful together.
I have changed organizations and have changed teams within the same organization. I understand the pressure that driven leaders put on themselves to get up and running and perform in their role.
I know what works well when building high performing teams… and I know what doesn’t when you only focus on the numbers. Through this experience I have helped dozens of leaders & teams unlock their full potential and increase team performance.
A Little About Leadership
Leadership is solemn duty
Leadership is a social interactive process that requires genuine relationships, connection, and communication. Leaders have an impact on those in their charge that extends beyond the office.
Leading requires practice
Leading teams requires intentional acts. Nobody is perfect, and nobody gets it right 100% of the time. Every day you have an opportunity to practice your leadership skills and develop as a leader so that you can positively impact your team.
Every Leader needs a trusted teammate
Being a leader can be lonely and stressful. Without someone asking you the tough questions, pushing you to look within, and helping you bring out the answers, you can easily start to second guess your decisions and feel the pressure to deliver results. Having a Leadership Coach in your corner gives you the tactical advantage.
