Coach Davis: The Corporate Plumber Who Transforms Potential into Performance
Alden Davis, affectionately known as the “Corporate Plumber,” isn’t your typical coach. He doesn’t promise to turn you into a millionaire, but he will help you unlock sustainable performance and build a solid future. With decades of hands-on experience—from the factory floor to corporate boardrooms—Coach Davis has a proven formula for success that focuses on people and businesses working smarter, not just harder.
Raised on the work ethic of tough factory jobs, Coach Davis embodies practicality. His approach isn’t theoretical; it’s rooted in real-world experiences, often in the most complex and challenging environments. He has solved multi-million-dollar problems in aerospace, defense, and manufacturing sectors, leading everything from large-scale corporate transformations to small, daily operational improvements. He’s known for eliminating bottlenecks, improving productivity, and helping businesses rise to their full potential—even when facing near-impossible odds.
For eight remarkable years, Alden had the honor of being “Coach Davis” on WTIC Newstalk radio in Connecticut, where he inspired listeners with motivational insights derived from his STARPOWER model. This radio segment allowed him to reach a broad audience, sharing practical wisdom and empowering individuals to take control of their futures. Today, he is thrilled to extend this wealth of knowledge to a global audience, bringing the same energy and actionable advice that made his radio show a local favorite.
Coach Davis earned his reputation by saving a factory slated for closure, turning it into a world-class operation. He was involved introducing management to lean initiatives that resulted in a 10-year stock growth from $18 to $228 at UTC, introduced high-performance work systems, and resolved multimillion-dollar production overruns for complex products like sophisticated missile systems. His expertise spans all facets of business—from operations and supply chain management to labor relations and executive coaching. In each case, he brings a holistic, group-based approach that engages everyone from the shop floor to the C-suite.
With Coach Davis, you’re not just learning management theories—you’re applying strategies that have been tested and refined over decades of work with some of the world’s leading organizations. His extensive experience includes managing multi-stakeholder challenges, building high-performance work systems, and mentoring leadership in navigating the intricacies of global business. His background with firms like Pratt & Whitney and United Technologies, combined with his international consulting experience across countries like China, Germany, and South Africa, gives him a global perspective on solving business problems.
One of the core principles that sets Coach Davis apart is his emphasis on group-based, high-involvement processes. He firmly believes that “the people who do the work are best able to improve the work.” This philosophy underpins his approach, ensuring that improvements are sustainable and benefit all stakeholders. Whether you’re trying to turn around an underperforming department, build a safety-first culture, or align a global workforce, Coach Davis will help you get there. He doesn’t offer a one-size-fits-all solution; instead, he helps you develop a tailored roadmap that fits your specific challenges and goals.
After 29 years in corporate roles, Coach Davis transitioned to private consulting, where he expanded his impact to a wider array of industries. His clients range from aerospace and steel mills to private equity firms and social good corporations, but the formula for success remains the same: practical, sustainable, and group-driven change.
If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and get into gear, Coach Davis is ready to guide you through the process. He won’t give you a quick fix, but he will help you lay the foundation for long-term success—one that benefits not only you but everyone around you.
