Dr. Greg L. Finch ICF ACC, DMin, MDiv, MTS, BED
Director of Collaborative Projects + Executive Leadership Coach
"We already possess every resource needed to lead an extraordinary life.
Energized by more than 20 years of integrated practice in leadership development and university teaching — and as an ICF ACC–credentialed executive coach — Dr. Greg L. Finch equips high-impact executive leaders, alongside their teams and organizations, to master the dynamic opportunities and ever-evolving challenges of a world in perpetual reset.
Greg crafts laser-focused, judgment-free zones — brimming with humor and insight — where leaders forge potential into awareness, transform values into aligned action, coax communication and relationships into collaboration, channel energy into innovation, and accelerate leadership development into the highest impact for “exceptional performance, relationships, and life.”
Greg works across sectors and beyond silos with individual leaders in demanding Fortune 50, federal agency and public service, national and international operations, NGO, healthcare, veteran, and charitable and social-impact environments — including leaders and teams from Freddie Mac, Microsoft, ENSCO, Inc., the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, NOAA Fisheries, Conservation Legacy, and the West Virginia Rivers Coalition.
His C-suite, senior executive, rising-career, high-potential, and succession clients advance to “next tier” responsibility, manage their workforce constellations “up, down, and across,” and attract and retain exceptional “next generation” talent — while excelling in the endeavors they hold valuable, meaningful, and vital to their professional growth, impact, and legacy.
Having lived on both coasts and in between — with life stops in Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, Princeton, Washington DC, and Harpers Ferry — Greg continues to cycle, Zumba, yoga, kayak, travel, and chorus his way around this great big world from his condo-in-the-sky overlooking Baltimore’s Inner Harbor.
