Meet Your Coach!
Former Hostage Negotiator | Conflict Strategist | Executive Coach | Creator of the Real Tact Modelâ„¢
Ryan Marshall Dunlap
My name is Ryan and I'm on a mission to help leaders get their 'ish together.
As a former SWAT hostage negotiator turned conflict strategist, I've spent the last 20 years helping leaders and organizations respond to complex, high-stakes conflicts.
Today, I leverage those years of conflict and crisis management experience, along with my proprietary conflict resolution framework, to help others become conflict-competent leaders with the skills to
enhance their leadership presence, inspire connectedness between teams, & improve organizational health!
Frequently Asked Questions:

Currently, membership is $20 per-month or $220 for 1-year.
​
Why The Ish Factor?
By definition, The Ish Factor represents the character required and the knowledge possessed to distinguish oneself by diminishing the conflict within themself.
​
Unfortunately, many leaders lack the character and skill necessary to manage conflict well, either within themselves or with others. That's why The Ish Factor online community exists.
As a community, The Ish Factor solves this problem. Inside, members will gain the knowledge, skills, and resources necessary to build their self-awareness, grow their self-confidence, and demonstrate self-control. By joining this community, members will distinguish themselves by improving how they lead themselves and others through conflict & adversity.
​
Is The Ish Factor a Course or Learning Platform?
No! We are a community built on real engagement and real relationships. While we absolutely intend to roll out courses in the future, those courses will be just one component of the full community experience.
​
Is there a contract to sign-up?
Nope. Your membership is never based on a contract. Cancel anytime!
​
How often will new content be added to the community?
Every day, you'll find new content added to the community. From daily discussions and digital resources to training videos and webinars, there will always be something to learn!
​
I'm a leader in a unique industry. Is there a place for me?
We've worked with leaders in a number of different industries. From K-12 public school administrators and elected officials to multinational healthcare executives and small business owners, there's a space for you!
​
By having representation from a number of different industries, your voice becomes a source of learning for others to glean from. Your conflict, just like everyone else's, is unique to you. By sharing your unique challenges and experiences with others, you can help them grow as well!
​
Will I have a chance to work with Ryan 1 on 1?
You will be learning and growing with Ryan during live sessions, webinars, and community events, building yourself up in partnership with your community members! He'll definitely be around!
For those looking to go a little deeper or looking for a more personal experience, opportunities for private coaching or exclusive group coaching with Ryan will be available for an additional cost.
