Derrick Mains as a guest for your podcast. Four time author, Emmy winner, host of The Process Fixer, serial entrepreneur, and CEO, Derrick has consulted on process optimization for hundreds of companies from Walmart to Exxon.
American business culture often rewards stoic, strong man behavior where our emotions are checked at the door but it’s impossible to truly remove our human instincts and limbic responses. Derrick’s approach to process optimization and change management is centered in acknowledging and managing these human instincts. He believes that when we see, value, and empower employees as whole humans, they reflect that value back to the customer.
A born storyteller, Derrick weaves history, psychology, philosophy, and lived experience into powerful conversation on how we can shape the human-centric workplace of the future.
America’s Leadership Authority” Dr. Derrick Noble has been helping business leaders take their leadership and communication skills to the next level of excellence for two decades. His passion has led him to support those from all walks of life to become more influential leaders and more confident communicators.
Throughout his youth, Noble endured years of speech therapy for a severe stutter and speech impediment. Once quoted as stating he was “the least likely person to be a professional speaker,” Dr. Noble has since gone on to become an award-winning TEDx speaker, speech coach, and trainer. He now famously quips “At first, I couldn’t talk, and now they can’t shut me up!”
Noble works directly with leaders, speakers, business owners, CEOs, non-profit organizations, and governmental agencies. His clients throughout the years include The United States Air Force, The United States Navy, The United States Forestry Service, The FBI, the City of Los Angeles, and so many more.
In 2020, Noble was one of only 12 Black entrepreneurs admitted into the Greater Los Angeles African American Chamber of Commerce’s prestigious Business Evolution Program – an intense 12-month program in which he was personally mentored by some of the most successful Black entrepreneurs in the city. In 2021, he was featured in the Los Angeles Business Journal as an influential African American business leader. He currently serves as the featured Leadership Expert for BizTV, a national broadcast network for entrepreneurs and business owners, and he hosts “The Dr. Derrick Noble Show” on KGGR of Dallas, TX – the largest Black-owned radio station in the US.
In December 2022, Noble released his highly anticipated first book, Leadership Launch: Essential Skills for New Leaders. It quickly became an international best seller, and was designated as the #1 new business book worldwide within its first two weeks of availability. The book includes a foreword by Civil Rights hero Dr. Melba Pattillo Beals, a member of the Little Rock Nine, a group of African-American students who were the first to integrate Little Rock Central High School.
Noble has a Bachelor of Arts degree in English - with a double minor in Speech Communication and Psychology - from Angelo State University (1994), a Master of Divinity degree from Morehouse School of Religion (1997 Class Valedictorian), a Doctor of Ministry degree from Ashland Theological Seminary (2008 Class Valedictorian), and completed Ph.D. coursework in Educational Curriculum at Emory University.
Noble is an avid fan of the Los Angeles Clippers, Lakers and Dodgers; of classic jazz (particularly John Coltrane, Art Tatum, and Miles Davis), and also plays the jazz trombone himself. In addition, he is an ardent golfer, and loves watching classic martial arts movies.
