The Archetypes and the Drama of Change

by David Hulings

Overview

Any change in a person's life or an organization is a story. And, of course, like a story, there must be characters-actors. Some actors in the story of change are heroes. Some are villains. Some are key actors and have powerful and influential roles in the change narrative. Others have bit roles; they seem insignificant and less important. Each person in the change dialogue, however, will tell the story over and over. Generations later will give an account of "remember when we had to change that." Sometimes the story is a good story. Often it is a bad story. This book is a guidebook, a script, to help assure we have more purposeful actors creating more positive stories of change. Those successful stories would replace what we often hear-negative narratives of failed and incomplete ventures.

About the Author

Years ago, David was sent on a journey, but not by his own choosing or making. A broken marriage would end one career as a church pastor, but by God’s grace, it would also open the door to another. Executive leadership coaching was not on David’s life plan, but thirty years later after hundreds of one-on-one coaching sessions logged and thousands of hours of learning more, has changed that life plan. Since that devastating turn in the road, David has not only crafted a successful leadership coaching business, but has enjoyed every minute of it. Why? Because it has fulfilled the purpose of his life. Written on the wall of his office, it reads:

To be available, to provide tools, to equip leaders, to do good, to the glory of my God.

David has been blessed with a passion to transform the lives of those he meets, especially those who lead others. Hulings & Associates started out as a business, but has turned into a calling. Along with some amazing associates, David looks to find a way to equip leaders to get from point A to point B. This is why he refers to himself as a leadership coach. The etymology of coach is that of a buggy which was created to take you from where you are to where you want to go. Whether he is speaking, writing books and/or training modules, designing individualized leadership tools, or conducting one-on-one coaching sessions, his desire is to make sure clients and organizations archive their desired ends and reach their planned destinations.

When David is not engaged in transformation work, he enjoys life with his amazing wife, Robin May, along with their seven children and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Living on the west coast of Michigan, he loves traveling with Robin to their second home, Way Maker, their boat located on the west coast of Florida. To David, creativity begins on the water and ends up in his speaking and writing.
