Nothing Has Ever Had a Larger Impact In my decades of working with consultants in my company, you’re still the best management consultant I have ever experienced. Ten plus years later most of my team has moved on but in conversations with them, what they learned and are still using from your work comes up regularly……impressive Dennis Hempstead – President & CEO of Clean World USA

Deb and John’s exciting new book on The Submarine Way toward Diveristy and Inclusion will totally change the way you think about a subject that can be a sensitive and challenging one to tackle. Being a corporate executive, former pastor, and business owner, I’ve been faced with leading and fostering an inclusive environment and team when the stakes were really high. Their insightful and inspiring approach will be different, yet successful. I encourage you to read it and dive in! Darryl Webb – Senior Vice President of Operations Golden Corral


Experience provides the lens through which I evaluate the effectiveness of current and future decisions. This lens provides me with passion and strength; it defines principles; it yields discernment. However, these experiences (and my textbook knowledge) are woefully inadequate to effectively guide, mentor and grow new, better leaders. Experiences have to be coupled with a systemic approach that ensures sustainment and reproducibility – an approach that makes it ‘the way we do business.’ This way, when I move on to my next experience, the new leaders can build on these blocks. John and Deb in Up Periscope so effectively present the core building blocks of that system – a system that resources and strengthens people to solve incredibly complex problems, innovate, learn, and create value for the organization, themselves, and society.” —Cheryl R.
