I’m passionate about High Performance, people and teams. I draw upon my professional and personal life experiences to inspire High Performance in others as an Executive Coach, Leadership Coach, Facilitator, Podcast Host and Keynote Speaker. I retired from the U.S. Army in 2016 as a Special Forces Green Beret after many incredible experiences in varied high-threat and high-performing environments in Hawaii, Washington, Georgia, North Carolina, South America, Afghanistan and also in Iraq. While in the military, I led specialized teams of 2 to 165 people, programmed budgets in excess of $130 million, and traveled the country to connect, educate, and inspire others to pursue world-class service in Special Operations. Following my Army retirement, I graduated from George Mason University’s Center for the Advancement of Well-being as a certified Leadership coach, since then, have coached over 125 clients totaling over 700 hours of one-on-one intimate coaching sessions. In 2018 I founded Court Whitman Inspiring High Performance with the mission to Unlock Your Hidden Potential and Develop Your Competence so You Can Achieve Incredible Results. In 2019, I created the High Performance Pathways Podcast because I believe that everyone has a different path to high performance and hearing about the paths other professional’s have journeyed along is informative and inspiring. My coaching work specializes in coaching high performing veterans and athletes who are in transition out of the military and out of competitive sport and into their first civilian vocation. I passionately explore identity, strengths, core competencies, behavior, belief, and influence to best develop managerial and leadership skills, define performance excellence, and create optimal organizational culture to achieve results for individuals and their teams.
