TESTIMONIALS
WHAT LEADERS ARE SAYING
And why he's asked back
On stage and off, Dr. Diamond has a reputation for putting others first and leaving a lasting impact.
HEALTHCARE
“You wowed the group. We are still debriefing from your work with us. I feel so energized — even more than before and excited about our future”
Chief of Subspecialty Medicine
The Polyclinic
“Taking time to think divergently will help us be problem solvers. It’s so easy to slip into convergent thinking and being a victim in a large organization — but we have a choice every day who we want to be in the world. I want to choose to be a powerful giver. A day well spent.”
Providence Health Care
“I recommend Dr. Diamond’s workshop to any organization going through change that needs leaders to understand their role in making change happen. We had Dan present to our senior leadership and middle managers. Many commented how he got them to think outside the box while giving them tools they can use in new or difficult situations. I am happy to serve as a reference anytime.”
Regional Chief Executive
Providence Health Care
“Dan is an extraordinary communicator, and his presentation inspired me to think differently, to have courage, and to confront problems in health care by challenging the way we might first consider issues. His toolkit of ‘Triage Thinking’ should be at the fingertips of all health care leaders desiring to make a profound and lasting difference.”
Regional Senior Director
Providence Health & Services
“Dr. Dan Diamond went the extra mile to understand our issues and customize his program to meet the needs of our group. His presentation was captivating, entertaining, and game changing. His six-week Huddle Thoughts program kept the ideas alive as our teams applied his concepts on the frontline where it matters most. We look forward to bringing him back.”
Pediatric Surgeon
Seattle Children's Hospital
“This workshop was invaluable in allowing me to focus on my purpose, achieve the right mindset, and truly connect with my colleagues.”
“Dan’s energy and passion transferred to the entire room. He shared information that was compelling, hit home, and was actionable. I walked out of this two-day experience knowing I will live my life differently, both personally and professionally.”
Vice-Chair, Assistant Professor of Family Medicine
COMP-Northwest, Western University of Health Sciences
“I had the opportunity to hear Dr. Diamond speak in front of an audience of healthcare professionals. The audience response was unlike anything I have seen at an education conference. Physicians and caregivers alike were cheering and interjecting with emphatic ‘Yeah!’s.”
“A fantastic workshop that moved our team from ‘me’ to ‘WE.’ Dr. Diamond is a fantastic facilitator and made the day fun and engaging.”
Seattle Children's Surgical Program
“His experience and perspective on how to lead and remain level-headed under extreme pressure is not only compelling, it’s critical. From our physicians: ‘A very skilled presenter who wove together many intricate pieces of stress and burnout with real-life situations.”
Chief Education Officer
Pennsylvania Academy of Family Physicians
FAITH-BASED & MISSION-DRIVEN
“What truly sets Dr. Dan apart is how his faith underpins every aspect of his work. His values and principles shine through in every interaction, and provide a strong foundation for his coaching and facilitation approach. This alignment of faith and professional excellence has inspired our leaders to lead with integrity and purpose.”
Senior Director, People & Organizational Capability
World Vision
“It felt so personal and engaging, almost as though we were all in the same room together. The material was insightful and practical. I’ve already started to apply some of those principles in my own role. It’s rare to feel such authenticity in an online setting.”
Program and Partnership Development Director
World Vision
“When invited to help a hurting community that survived multiple tragedies, Dr. Diamond was personable, professional, and inspirational. He shared a compassionate yet profound message that left the audience with simple tools to not only survive but to thrive as a community.”
Founder and Executive Director
Barb Smith Suicide Resource & Response Network
CORPORATE
“From the start (when he answered the phone rather than an assistant) to finish, Dan was a meeting planner’s dream. Rather than give an off-the-shelf talk, he asked many questions in a sincere effort to know our group, and even interviewed three conference attendees before the program. He came as a speaker and left as a friend. Hire him. You won’t be disappointed.”
Executive Director
AAMC
“I attended the ‘Performing Under Pressure’ event and WOW. There were takeaways I put into practice right away. I loved the idea that the time you’re under pressure is not the time to work on your weaknesses. I’ve put that into practice in a major way — we just landed a HUGE contract where that played a major factor.”
Enterprise and Government Services
TLG Learning
“Dan brought extraordinary value to our organization. He spent the time to understand our business and find the right approach to make his presentation truly relevant. Everyone was engaged, moved, and challenged to collaborate in ways we hadn’t before. We walked away with tools we can apply throughout the year for tangible results. He far exceeded our expectations.”
Sr. Manager of Training & Development
Egencia, an Expedia Company
“Dr. Diamond captivates audiences of any size with his spot-on insights, humor, and contagious enthusiasm. His talks are insightful, solution-oriented, and empower the audience to take action. I would highly recommend him as a speaker.”
President
Manhattan Research
“Dr. Diamond hit it out of the park at our educational summit. He’s a true storyteller — thought-provoking, engaging, and inspiring. His knowledge, expertise, and passion won over our audience, who still talk about his presentation to this day.”
Executive Director, Global Sales
New England Journal of Medicine
“Dan is a tremendous business partner that I hope to continue to work with in the future. His energy, passion, and commitment to his work is what separates Dan from other advisers, consultants, and speakers. My highest recommendation.”
Eli Lilly and Company
“I have twice had the pleasure of watching Dan speak, each in a different size venue with a very different audience, but Dan was adept at tailoring his message for maximum engagement. The first time, I thought about his talk for days, found his TED talk, and shared it with family and friends. I subsequently booked Dan to keynote a conference, and he exceeded our expectations.”
Senior Counsel
HHS/OIG
“His dynamic talk was a huge hit at our annual meeting, and his call to action was inspiring to every attendee. Dan doesn’t just step on stage and wing it — he does smart planning and insightful interviews to get to know your organization, then tailors the presentation to the culture and lingo of the audience.”
Senior Scientific Director, US Medical Affairs
AbbVie
MEDIA & NOTABLE VOICES
“Dr. Dan Diamond... these are the heroes of this story. It’s the people on the ground who said, ‘I see a need. Let’s do it.’ These are the people whose stories need to be told and sung from the rooftops.”
