I'm Donovan Manley, founder of Stalwart Performance, retired infantry officer, paratrooper, and a relentless optimist. From leading in high-stakes environments to bringing battlefield lessons to the boardroom, I've seen the highs and lows of leadership. Along the way, I became known for my ability to develop leaders who could perform their best under intense stress.
This journey inspired the STALWART Leader Model, a blueprint for resilient leadership in the corporate arena. I've learned that leadership's essence isn't only about performance. It's also about resilience, adaptability, and not compromising your personal life, health, or family.
Ready to elevate your leadership?
Embrace the challenge. Embrace the journey. Lead with impact.
Donovan R. Manley
Founder, Stalwart Performance
Donovan Manley truly has a gift. I am the first one to turn away from my goals, but Donovan has the best attitude and practices to get you right on track. His structure is set for the busy professionals who do not believe they have the time to better themselves and are set up for each specific person differently. I have recommended him to many and will continue to do so."
