Adam Klein is a Professional Coaching Course leader and Managing Partner at NVW. He is dedicated to seeing people and mission-focused organizations fulfill their capacity. Prior to joining NVW he helped create a first-in-class business solution to combat global slavery and re-launch a San Francisco Bay Area center for integral development.

Adam’s background is in engineering, with a Master’s degree from Santa Clara University. While working as a project lead for a joint satellite project with NASA AMES, the Air Force Research Lab, and Stanford University, he saw that knowledge was only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to effectiveness, great accomplishment and, more importantly, deep satisfaction. This insight led him to his life’s work of supporting people in long-term human development and integration. His great joy is now working with clients and seeing them more fulfilled and effective.

A published poet, Adam finds inspiration through his practice of ultra-running and extended time in the wild. He delights in spending time with his wife Robyn and their daughter Genesis.
