“A group of highly enlightened people who have the ability to constructively disturb to a point that creates access for transformation. They are skilled at knocking people off their center, or nudging them out of their comfort zone, to the level where one can look at one’s self and environment in a fresh way. They are skilled at leading people through that type of powerful inquiry.”
Mark Murphy, CEO
Pro-Dex, Inc.

“We set out with a specific goal. We could triple our revenue this year, so from the financial perspective, we’re having fairly dramatic results. From the human dimension, we’re adding staff, doing a much better job getting them to understand what we’re all about and committing to change.”
Mike Kiley, President

“2130 Partners was extremely effective. All sorts of barriers were broken in the realm of communications. We took four teams and four leaders that were very isolated, working in their own universe, not communicating, and created a highly effective leadership team…2130 Partners is about growing people, not just growing organizations.”

“I have worked closely with Dwight since 1994 during my tenure as CEO for two fast growing companies. He has been my coach and mentor as well as team facilitator throughout. Dwight has provided valuable feedback and guidance which has significantly contributed to my development as a leader and complete human being. Dwight played a valuable role in facilitating annual and quarterly strategic planning offsite meetings for my executive team and is uniquely qualified to help CEOs develop and integrate high performing teams. It would be impossible to measure his contribution to our company which during the time he worked with us has grown dramatically from $1M to $52M.”

One of the barriers to extraordinary performance is personal “blind spots.” The value of rigorous coaching is I see and understand my blind spots – - this has unleashed creativity and leadership. Coaching also has helped me to appreciate and value different perspectives. This has strengthened my relationship with clients, team members and most importantly my business partner.

“I have been working with Lee Traband of 2130 Partners for two years. Her ability to bring my perspective back to what is of true importance rather than my concern of the moment has been remarkable. My work has become ever truer to the course with respect to my life commitments. My monthly conversations with Lee are a regular opportunity for me to align my work with what I say I am about.”
