About Todd Hess

---

 I specialize in coaching and cultivating leaders—inclusive of members of the LGBTQ+ community— to excel in building top-performing teams. I’m a great listener, collaborative, friendly, as well as solid/dependable.  I bring a wealth of coaching expertise from renowned companies in Tech, B2B, Healthcare, Hospitality, Fintech, Telecom, Manufacturing, and Consumer Goods across North America, Autrailia, Asia, and Europe.

As a coach, I’m always amazed to see how my clients make tremendous leaps in their life by putting in place simple actionable steps. You can too! Whether you are an individual contributor, new to people management, or a senior leader who wants to make some form of adjustment in your life, career, development, and/or leadership style I am here to co-create that plan with you. You can make huge leaps in your life by working with me, where together, we explore what is most important to you and then we make a plan to get you to the next step. 

Prior to coaching, I was an HR Executive with 15+ years of experience leading Organizational Development and Leadership Development functions to help companies like Castlight Health, eBay, CallTower, Vivint SmartHome, and NICE to improve management skills, employee performance, retention, and revenue growth. I have been passionate about developing people and ensuring organizational health across the United States, Europe, and Asia. 

I live in Utah, home to several national parks, state parks, the world's greatest skiing, and long mountain ranges. I'm a lover of the outdoors where I enjoy hiking, mountain biking, camping, backpacking, kayaking, and snow skiing. 

I also delight in traveling the world. I lived in Taiwan for five years and traveled to many countries in Asia. I have been to Central America, Canada, and Europe. I get asked where's my favorite place and I love to say, "Any place I haven't been!"
