Tim Dumas
Growth Advisor
Tim approaches his work as a coach with magnanimity – a calling to bring out the greatness in others, and to support entrepreneurs in creating corporate cultures that support the fulfillment of people’s dreams.
His greatest satisfaction comes from helping clients to live with greater self-awareness, and purpose aligned with their priorities.

Testimonials
“Kevin Lawrence uses the term ‘burnout’. With his straightforward approach, Tim Dumas can get you from burnt out to the top of your game and then show you you’re capable of so much more.”
Kevin Hughes, Rail Business and Product Manager, Falcon Equipment
“Collaborating with Tim and the esteemed team at Lawrence & Co. has significantly transformed our business operations. Initially, despite our rapid growth, we found ourselves similar to a ship without a rudder—possessing immense potential yet lacking the strategic direction necessary for effective management. It was Tim’s insightful guidance that catalyzed the pivotal changes we required. His expert coaching and mentoring have been indispensable in facilitating our decision-making processes and steering our company towards a prosperous trajectory.”
Travis Jack, RSE, President, Evergreen Climate Solutions Inc
“Working alongside Tim has unequivocally marked the pinnacle of my professional journey. While I once prided myself on being a competent business owner with commendable results, ambition, and a positive work culture, it was only upon collaborating with Tim that I realized the boundless potential within myself and my team. Tim’s unwavering commitment to excellence has propelled us beyond mere adequacy, refining our vision, streamlining our strategies, and challenging the status quo to achieve unparalleled success. A year ago, the notion of achieving elite performance across all metrics within our chain seemed improbable, if not impossible. Yet, Tim’s guidance, astute leadership, and unwavering support have transformed that aspiration into a resounding reality. From bolstering our numbers to fostering a culture of excellence, Tim’s influence knows no bounds. To Tim, I extend my deepest gratitude for your invaluable mentorship, steadfast dedication, and genuine camaraderie. Chick-fil-A Byram owes a lot of our recent success to you.”
Morgan Tucker, Owner/Operator, Chick-fil-A Byram
