ABOUT
Dirigo: (latin) “I lead”
Dirigo was founded by Tim Hebert, a serial entrepreneur, leadership development coach, keynote speaker, and author of The Intentional Leader.
In growing the firm, Tim hand-selected Erica Davies, Garry Foisy, and Dave Ramsden, executives with whom he had collaborated in the past, each of whom brought unique skillsets to the table. Together, we work to help everyone reach their full potential, because everyone has the potential to lead.

Our Services
Businesses, organizations, and people have this in common: they’re not static entities. As they evolve, they pass through different stages of growth. And with each new stage comes new challenges. If people and their organizations want to thrive, they need to develop new skills and capabilities. However, that simple fact can be hard to notice if you’re looking from the same vantage point everyday. At Dirigo, we can bring a fresh perspective on the leadership skills your organization has and the ones you will need in order to grow. Moreover, through our development programs, workshops, and speaking engagements, we provide the education and teambuilding experiences needed to change the dynamic and get both your people and your organization to the next level.
