I’m Dethra Giles, and I believe audacity changes everything. Audacity is what turns leaders into legends, conversations into culture shifts, and careers into corner-office success stories.

For over two decades, I’ve been the secret weapon behind Fortune 500 companies, championship teams, government agencies,
and executives who refuse to settle for “business as usual.” As the CEO of ExecuPrep, I’ve helped organizations worldwide unlock the three things every company needs to thrive: Performance. Productivity. Profits.
