About Ryan Skimmons

Founder | Coach | Facilitator | Culture Strategist

I'm Ryan Skimmons, and I founded The Skimmons Group with one guiding belief: when people thrive, organizations do too.

With a background in organizational psychology and over a decade of experience designing and facilitating transformational learning experiences, I help mission-driven teams develop stronger leaders, healthier cultures, and more human-centered systems. My work lives at the intersection of insight and action—where coaching meets strategy, and where real change begins.

I’ve had the privilege of coaching healthcare professionals, nonprofit leaders, public safety teams, and executives navigating complex organizational challenges. I’m certified in the DISC behavioral assessment and specialize in helping teams connect across silos, deepen collaboration, and lead with greater clarity and compassion. One of my proudest achievements was designing the first-ever mental health co-responder training program for the Philadelphia Police Department, a testament to my commitment to equity, innovation, and behavioral health integration.

Whether I’m guiding a leadership retreat, facilitating a tough team conversation, or coaching an individual leader through change, my goal is the same: to help people show up more fully, lead more effectively, and build cultures that make work, and life, better.
