“It is difficult to put into words what Daron has meant to me personally and professionally. When I joined Vistage 5 years ago I was looking for some help working through some business issues and a group of peers with similar challenges. While Vistage offered a platform to meet wonderful people, it wasn't Vistage that made it special. It was Daron. Daron has a unique ability to connect with people and get directly to the core of who they are and their challenges quickly. In working with Daron, he has helped me become a better leader, businessperson, and most importantly, Dad and Husband. He has been there through some of my highest highs and lowest lows, always available to talk and provide perspective. Tangibly, for those of you reading this review interested in the "results", in the time I have worked with Daron my business has more than tripled in size while increasing profit margins substantially. An exponential ROI when compared to what I have paid him/Vistage over that time. In my life, there are only a handful of people that I could consider as having a major impact on my trajectory in terms of business and life. Daron is one of those people. He is truly special.”
