Kyle McDowell is a bestselling author, speaker, and leadership coach with nearly three decades of experience leading tens of thousands of employees at some of America’s largest corporations, including United Health Group, CVS Health, and Bank of America.

McDowell’s passion for people and proven track record for cultivating truly authentic and courageous leaders were born from an unwavering belief that there’s a better way to thrive in Corporate America. That passion culminated in the creation of The 10 WEs, McDowell’s guiding principles which also serve as the foundation for his Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling book, Begin With WE: 10 Principles for Building and Sustaining a Culture of Excellence.

After successfully weaving The 10 WEs into the cultural fabric of several organizations, McDowell wrote Begin With WE and launched Kyle McDowell Inc., a global coaching, consulting, and speaking firm dedicated to improving organizational effectiveness by inspiring courageous and authentic leaders who are committed to the power of WE.

McDowell is widely known for his inspiring approaches to transform bosses into real leaders while reshaping corporate cultures. He is regularly invited to speak at business, educational, and nonprofit institutions and events, and has been featured in major national publications, such as The Wall Street Journal, The Boston Herald, and The Burlington Free Press. McDowell holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of South Florida and an MBA from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management. He lives in Tampa.
