I’m passionate about making Monday better for EVERYONE!

I’m Ryan

I’m a lifelong coach, author, speaker, and the creator of Love Monday Like Friday. For over a decade, I’ve been helping organizations build badass bosses who inspire their teams to love Mondays just like Friday—but for a different reason.

As a Gallup-certified strengths coach and the author of A Passion for Monday, my goal is to make work a place where people thrive. I believe great managers are the secret to creating high-performing teams, and I’m here to help leaders build the skills they need to drive engagement, foster growth, and create an environment where everyone feels empowered to do their best work.

Through my interactive training sessions, coaching programs, and the Love Monday Podcast, I work with companies to develop strong, effective managers who are the backbone of great workplaces. My mission is simple: to help every manager become the kind of leader their team deserves.

The Book

In A Passion for Monday, I take a fresh, no-nonsense approach to transforming the way we think about work. This book isn’t about enduring Mondays; it’s about thriving through them and finding purpose in every part of the week. Drawing on my years of experience in leadership development and employee engagement, I explore how managers can create a work environment where people look forward to Monday as much as Friday.

Packed with real-world examples, practical strategies, and a good dose of humor, A Passion for Monday dives into the core of what makes people tick at work—and what managers can do to unlock their team’s potential. Whether you're a manager looking to inspire your team or someone searching for more meaning in your career, this book offers insights and tools to help you find that spark and build a work life you love.
