1. I have a unique perspective.
My journey.
Born in Guyana, South America to illiterate parents, I learned
the meaning of duty and hard work. Working in the
sugarcane fields as a young boy, I dreamed of what I wanted
to become and the life I desired to have. Through self-
discipline, determination, and dedication to excellence, I
earned scholarships to the University of the West Indies to
pursue a degree in Law and later to the University of Michigan
to study Industrial Engineering.
I worked in corporate
America for 32 years as
an engineer, plant
manager, and general
manager/CEO for
companies ranging in
revenue from $20 -
$100 million annually.
My career began at
Dover Corporation, an $8 billion industrial conglomerate. As
a General Manager within the De-Sta-Co Division, I
successfully rebuilt the organization from operating at a loss
to a 25% pre-tax profit. At De-Sta-Co, I created and
promoted a lean thinking culture, encouraging people to
strive for operational excellence. I later worked for Tower
Automotive, a $2 billion automotive supplier, as the General
Manager of the Tooling Business Unit. I hired, trained, and
developed a leadership team to promote a profit-thinking
culture. Together, we reduced operating costs by $15 million.
Ready for the next phase in my journey, I took a position as
General Manager/CEO for Midland Forge, a division of
Columbus McKinnon in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Through
leadership development, global market penetration, and
inventory management, I increased revenues from $22
million to $40 million and improved profit from the 25%
range to 35% range.
Four years ago I decided to leave corporate America to fulfill
my dream of becoming a business owner. I feel most
energized and accomplished when I am educating and
helping others reach their potential. My passion and skill for
people development, combined with my ability to
successfully rebuild companies, led to my decision to become
a business coach.
I have coached and trained several business owners,
executives, and management teams. We focus on self
awareness/self development, leadership skills, and business
acumen. As your business coach, I work with you to help you
cultivate your own talents and expand your success.
My curriculums and practices are based on both text book
theories and philosophies and proven methodologies that I
have practiced and experienced myself. I am authentic,
passionate, and focused. As my business coaching theory
states, if you fail, I fail.
If You Fail, I Fail …
Leadership Change for a Better World.
“KP is a fantastic business coach contracted by DuPont
Pioneer to fast track the development of my business and
leadership skills. KP gave me the confidence that I need
to excel in my role and my leadership was thrilled with
the velocity of change that they witnessed.”
- Lisa Newman Ph.D, Oxford,
Senior Research Manager, DuPont Pioneer

financial goals, you must first master self and only then, become an effective personal leader.

I Offer a Variety of Services, Tailored to Meet Your Needs.
Executive Coaching
One-to-One
Executive coaching is a customized leadership development
program for senior managers and executives. We will focus
on critical areas including: leadership, team dynamics,
strategies, change management, and emotional intellegence.
Through assessments, evaluations, and feedback we will
determine the ‘gaps’ in your skill set and develop an action
plan for improvement.
Together, we will build a trusting and constructive
relationship so I can challenge , push, and hold you
accountable. We go anywhere from character issues
to business acumen competencies. You will learn new
behaviors and attitudes to enhance your potential and
achieve even greater results.

4. “Team Smart”
Collective “team smart” is more powerful and effective than “individual smart” working separately. I work with team leaders to
help them understand their role as leaders and overcome absence of trust, fear of conflict, and lack of commitment and
cohesion. A team does not happen by itself; you have to work at it. We will explore personality types and preferences to
understand how people interact and communicate. Through team building activities and conflict resolution exercises we will
create synergestic teams capable of working together to achieve common goals.
Strategic Planning Retreat
Many organizations plan and develop long-term strategies but fail to execute and measure their success. Strategic Planning
Retreat is a group planning process designed to help leaders bring focus and clarity to the direction of their organizations.
Together, we will examine where you are and where you want to go. I will help you develop both short and long-term
strategies to align your vision, mission, and culture. We will conduct a SWOT analysis to determine what your core competencies
are and whether you have the power to carry out your vision. We will put resouces, metrics, and enegery behind your vision!

“I am your mentor, teacher, confidant, and task master. I work
with you to bring ‘mojo’ to your life and the work you do!”
- K.P. Persaud, Coach

5. Business Coaching
Many business owners become too involved in day-to-day operations and lack time or know-how to both manage and drive
their companies forward. Traditionally, a coach motivates, teaches, and holds his or her trainees accountable to overcome their
challenges to attain their dreams and objectives. A business coach does the same for business owners. As your coach, I am
your business partner, mentor, and confidant. You bring the expertise of your business and I provide: experience and
knowledge, tools and strategies, vision, motivation, and accountability.
I use a variety of diagnostic tools to analyze your company’s financial health, business processes, and talent. Together we
determine your ‘pain points’ and develop strategies to position your company in the direction you wish to go. Unlike a
consultant, I will coach you through the implementation of our developed strategies so you understand how to do it yourself
and improve as a business owner. We will focus on key areas including:
As you know, true challenges are not overcome instantly. Repositioning your company and changing its strategic direction is a
journey. This process requires willingness to change, learn, and grow. It will be difficult but very worthwhile work.
With my strong business background and the ActionCoach system, I will coach you to evolve your business into a “profitable
commercial enterprise” that is sustainable over time. At the end, you will have the freedom to choose how you want to live
your life.

So, I have told you what I
do as a coach. The next
question is – what could we
do together?
The Supervisory Workshop: The Discipline of Execution: The
Supervisory Workshop is designed to teach effective managerial skills. Leaders will learn how to
become influential individuals and to engage, empower, and motivate employees to achieve greater
results. Many employees are promoted into leadership roles based on individual expertise and
accomplishments, but lack the ability and knowledge to direct and lead teams. This workshop
explores this transformation from individual contributor to successful leader. The Supervisory
Workshop focuses on four key areas of effective leadership: personal leadership, effective execution,
performance management, and building a win-win culture.
