Working with Keith was a great way to build context around all the influences affecting my work. It is far too uncommon to have someone who can listen and reflect in areas that are important to us and as specialized as leadership in game and tech, and Keith has been that guy for me.
Nick, VP of Business Development
I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to consult Keith on multiple occasions throughout my leadership journey. His 1:1 coaching helped me dig deeper into some career issues and gave me a new perspective on them. He was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and attentive during our discussions. He offered great insights and helped me identify areas where I could take actionable steps to address the topics we discussed. I’m thankful for the time I spent working with Keith on developing my leadership skills.
Ray, Production Coordinator
Being in a leadership role at a gamedev company is a LOT of responsibility, and if not done carefully it can frustrate even the most motivated person. Luckily when I was struggling with a lot of things on how to approach leadership with my team I found Keith, he listens to you, always keeps a neutral stance and if needed he will call you out on your bs. Being responsible of other humans is hard, don’t do it alone, get Keith to help you do it right, you, your company and your career will thank you for it.
Jose, CEO, Headless Chicken Games
People management is complex and nuanced. Even if you take the classes and read the books, every situation is different and presents unique challenges. Having someone who understands the problem space and can talk through possible solutions with was invaluable to me. Keith really helped me ground and organize my thoughts on people management generally as well as navigate some specific, sensitive scenarios.
Caleb, Animation Lead, PUBG
Keith has been working with me as a leadership coach for some time now, and his guidance has been invaluable to me as I navigate the many challenges of growing a company from a two-person startup into the next phase of growth. I always look forward to hearing his wisdom in our calls, and it’s been great to have some concrete guidance from someone who deeply understands leadership and management
Aaron, Co-owner, Flippfly
Keith is my backstop. When I need validation or alternative ways to go forward with client or employee related issues or planning, Keith is my go to guy to ask. His advice on keeping employees and contractors around and happy, plus direction on corporate culture are worth their weight in gold. He has a habit of asking probing questions that make you re-evaluate where you are going, how you are getting there and most importantly, why.
Jake, CEO, TNB Games
I’m where I’m at today because of Keith. Whether it was the 1:1 training, a random book recommendation, or just some of our conversations, I was always learning something that helped me grow into a better leader. I keep a list of people who have been the most influential on my approach to making games, and he’s on it. If you’re feeling stuck in your career you should at least take him up on that first free conversation. You never know where it might lead.
