Dale Henry

Founder & C.E.O. (Creator of Extraordinary Outcomes) – Expertise: Developing Great Leaders, Strengths-based Performance, Personal Growth, and Employee Engagement

After you’ve helped explain ‘employee engagement’ to the Gallup organization and taught Marcus Buckingham how to ‘break all the rules’ and play to your strengths (yes, Marcus wrote the books) as one of what Gallup later called, “The World’s Greatest Managers”…what do you do next?  Well, if you’re Dale, you accept an offer to partner with John C. Maxwell the world’s #1 authority on leadership and personal growth; thus quietly, but very intentionally, unifying and integrating the 3 drivers of extraordinary team and organizational performance.

You’ll quickly appreciate Dale’s comfortable, casual, and often humorous, mentoring style. You see, his goal isn’t to impress you with a larger than life ‘stage presence’, prove how smart he is, or acquire a huge global fan base. Instead he simply seeks to come along side everyday business leaders and help them become the Great Leaders of Great Teams™ they have the potential to become, so they can get the extraordinary results they truly desire. Hence, Dale’s personal life mission of helping ordinary people accomplish extraordinary things.

Dale went from a senior management position in one of Gallup’s showcase clients to launching Critical Insight Group, so he could play bigger, have more fun, and help far more leaders across the country succeed and build truly great teams. So far he’s touched the lives, and improved the performance, of over 1 million people in some of the very best companies throughout North America. (See a list of many of these companies here.)

Today, Dale’s known for three things:

  • An uncanny ability to find and develop the greatness (that combination of current strengths and future potential) within each person he works with
  • Developing highly influential leaders who know exactly how to build incredibly high-performing teams, and
  • An ever-present sense of humor that makes personal growth a fascinating, fun and energizing part of your life

Dale is also a founding partner with John, in the John Maxwell Team – an international team of master leadership & professional development coaches; a Master Human Capital Strategist with the Human Capital Institute; and the creator of the Real World Superhero Academy – the Professional Coaching Adventure of a Lifetime™ where he uses a masterful combination of cutting-edge science and creative imagination to help ordinary people accomplish extraordinary things (and feel like they’re living the life-story of a real world superhero!).
