For people whose performance carries consequence.

Adam Wright, Ph.D., performance consultant, executive coach, and psychotherapist

My approach was shaped by experience in elite sport, including four seasons as Director of Mental Performance for the Washington Nationals. I work with leaders and performers on the demands of the role and the life behind it.

My organizational work has included Meta and Ropes & Gray. I also advise Gotham FC leadership.

More about Adam

Most people I work with already know what to do. We work on what gets in the way.

People in demanding roles carry more than others can see. The issue is rarely effort or intelligence. More often, an established way of performing, relating, or managing pressure is no longer enough.

Few have a place to speak freely and in confidence. I understand the resistance to seeking one. I have felt it myself.

What brings people here

Under pressure, preparation can stop translating into performance. After a mistake or difficult decision, the next action can be harder to trust.

Success, injury, a life-stage transition, or greater responsibility can unsettle identity.

Sometimes nothing is failing. A new ambition simply calls for a different way of working.
