Profile
Assess, Plan, Train, Coach and Consult
Gary has successfully led both corporations and individuals through
organizational changes for 30 years. He works with each client individually to
assess the needs of the people in the organization and develop an action plan to
resolve the organization’s issues.

flexibility in transforming environments. He can help organizations manage this
journey from assessment through to planning, training, coaching, and consulting.
Gary’s mission is to help people process the emotional and relational impact
of change and master additional people and work-related skills to improve their
work and their lives. He specializes in building programs to meet client’s needs
and objectives. He always makes sure he is there through implementation and
follow-through of organizational plans.
Gary Copeland has dealt with a lot of change. As a university professor, a
professional speaker and consultant, and pastor of three churches, he has used
his insight, wit and wisdom to help others adapt and grow over the past three

Association of Family & Children’s Agencies, Richfield Hospitality, Inc., New
Mexico Recreation & Parks Association, Sanford Corporation, Frontier Airlines,
Qwest, S.P. Richards, as well as many other organizations and associations

workshops, seminars and keynote presentations based upon the international
bestseller of the same title by Spencer Johnson.

As one of his peers, Vilis Ozols, recently said, “Gary Copeland reminds you of
the phrase – still waters run deep. He personifies self-confidence in everything
he does, with a sense of quiet dignity and an abundance of class. Yet, the
moment you receive the benefit of his knowledge, whether it is through his
writing, in a formal, charismatic presentation, or in a one-on-one conversation,
you will be blown away by his eloquence and by what can only be described as
insight.” |
