Everyone slows down. The best leaders find a second wind.
Built from Dan’s flagship keynote, Your Second Wind — now expanded into a complete system for individuals and teams. Bring it to your stage →
“The leaders who finish strong aren’t the ones with the most energy. They’re the ones who know exactly where to spend it.”
Whether it’s the middle of your day, the middle of your career, or a season of your life that’s lost its momentum — the question is the same. How do you achieve uncommon results that go beyond what you, or your organization, ever thought possible?
Drawing on thirty years of leadership in the newsroom, the boardroom, and the coaching room, Dan lays out the practical systems behind a genuine second wind: where your time actually goes, what your culture is really telling your people, and the conversations that turn a team around.
Readers of PerfectTIMING — the iMPACT book that promised two extra hours in your day — will recognize the style: hands-on, formula-driven, and immediately usable on Monday morning.

Why leaders listen when Dan talks.
Dan’s first leadership lesson arrived when he was a file clerk, in a single sentence from a boss: “You’re really leading this area.” He’s spent the rest of his career learning — and teaching — what that sentence takes.
Before he founded iMPACT, Dan Chiodo ran the operation. He spent more than ten years as President & Publisher of the Joplin Globe and held management posts across the Dow Jones community newspaper family — leading newsrooms, sales floors, and pressrooms where the deadline was every single day.
Today he is a Certified Mastermind Executive Coach, a member of the John Maxwell Team, and Senior Associate at MAIN Point — the communications firm trusted to prepare NASA astronauts, Fortune 500 executives, and White House personnel for the rooms that matter most.

Everything you’ve taught me has led to my dreaming bigger and to more effectively designing steps to achieve my goals. I have truly benefited from our coaching together.
