Dana Potthoff Biography

As a professional Sales and Leadership coach, Dana Potthoff has more than 15 years of experience in all aspects of sales. As a partner at Southwestern Consulting, she has worked with hundreds of companies across multiple industries.

Potthoff originally graduated cum laude from the University of California, Los Angeles. While a member of the university’s rowing team, she learned valuable lessons about perseverance, teamwork, leadership, and mental fortitude early on. When a spinal injury abruptly ended her collegiate athletic career, Potthoff applied these lessons to a new career. She quickly discovered a passion and talent for consulting, speaking, and mentoring. Joining the Tom James Company, Potthoff relocated to open a new location in Los Angeles. A true maximizer of productivity, she grew the business of female clientele to the second largest in the nation and consistently ranked in the top 1% in generating new business.

Potthoff is a powerhouse who consistently leads with integrity, inspiring team members and clients, and smashing company records along the way. In 2014, Potthoff joined Southwestern Consulting, where she broke the long-standing record for the most clients engaged in a year by any coach and quickly became a partner.

Potthoff currently resides in Brooklyn, New York, where she wakes up every morning to the same New York City skyline she pasted on her vision board when she was working from the spare bedroom of her grandmother’s house. Potthoff is a dog lover, avid reader, community activist/volunteer, world traveler, and a self-proclaimed morning person.

Dana Potthoff Speaking Topics

  • Own Your Seat

    An old African proverb says, “If you want to go fast, go alone; If you want to go far, go together.” In today’s fast paced and sometimes cut-throat working environment, many companies claim to have a culture of teamwork, but bubbling just below the surface of corporate kumbaya off-sites and motivational memos is an environment in which employees are often more likely to step on one another to get to the top than to lead others to success with them. And even when partnership and collaboration are encouraged, traditional trainings on teamwork tend to focus their message on reliance on others to pull their weight. The result is often stifled growth, slow starts, mediocre results, and high turnover. Own Your Seat argues that to go far, to go fast, and to win, every individual on the team has to take ownership over their own successes, failures, and growth, and lead rather than lean.

    In this thought-provoking keynote, Dana reflects on her experience as a Division 1 college athlete as she shares the lessons she learned as part of a winning team at one of the most storied athletic programs in NCAA history. Dana contends that when each individual team member takes ownership over their own place and performance and when each person decides to take accountability for their own place on the team, that team can’t help but win. Dana will unpack the secrets that lead to exponential growth and she’ll challenge audience members to transform their mindsets: Going from, “I rely on them” to, “They can rely on me”; from a place of dependence to dependability.

  • Believe. Decide. Commit

    You’ve probably heard the saying, “Today is the first day of the rest of your life”. While we’ve all heard that so much, it’s become a cultural cliché, the question Dana poses is, “What if today truly could be the catalyst for positive change in your life?”

    Today’s working environment is more stressful than ever before. Between balancing budgets and making lunches, leading meetings at work and finding time to take care of ourselves, the questions on many people’s hearts and minds linger: “Am I doing enough? Am I giving enough? Am I earning enough? Am I enough?” And is it even possible to “do it all” without some of these spinning plates crashing to the floor?”

    In this inspirational keynote, Dana draws from her experience interacting with thousands of incredible men and women, coupled with several years as a top producing, sought after sales and leadership coach. She will provide solutions to some of the unique challenges and pressures this generation’s workforce faces as we try to achieve lives of balance. Dana will guide you along a path to making this the best season of your life.
