Get Noticed. Get Recognized. Grow Your Career.
Farm-inspired talent development to help you stand out, collaborate better, and move forward at work.
If you are a frontline contributor or manager in a factory, warehouse, farm, restaurant, hospital, or office, your growth and success matter just as much as anyone else’s.
DTC Academy uses farming analogies and storytelling to make learning practical, memorable, and useful on the job. For generations, farmers have helped develop the next generation through hard work, responsibility, and real-life learning.
My passion is helping everyday workers improve their quality of life through practical learning, useful tools, and coaching that support real growth.

A 21st-Century Approach to Talent Development
DTC Academy embraces Joseph C. Rost's 21st-century definition of leadership and the pioneering concept of smart followership, the counterpart to management.
Talent Development 2.0 is an evolution, not a replacement.
We're not asking organizations to stop developing leaders or abandon existing training models. We're asking them to recognize that leadership is a role anyone can perform, smart followership deserves development, and collaboration should be the ultimate goal.
Anyone can be a leader. We are all followers. We are best as collaborators!
