About Us

Transforming leaders, teams, and entire organizations is not only possible. It’s what we do.

We are a small team that gets unreasonably excited about how great work can be for you (yes you!) but also for everyone out there struggling under a boss who has no damn clue what they’re doing. We are not Pollyannaish or toxically positive. This isn’t about sunshine and rainbows.

Nearly a decade in, we’ve had a massive impact on thousands of leaders worldwide. We know our stuff. And we can’t wait to help you know your stuff, too.

Group Interior

Our Approach

Before we started building bosses, we were bosses. We were promoted into management and then executive roles and told, “you’re smart, you’ll figure it out.”

We did figure it out, the hard way, through trial and error and mistakes and failure. Not because that was the best way to learn, but because no one offered us anything better. This wasn’t exclusive to us or our careers. This was how everyone we knew was coming up in leadership roles. Raw Signal Group is something better.

Adrian Durcik,

Adrian works closely with corporate clients to set up private training for their teams, and is the reason why RSG clients have the most relaxed, white-glove experience in the world. She’s also the resident COJG expert. If you have questions about those things, she’s the person to ask.

She has been with RSG since the beginning, running everything from first contact to training logistics and all the pieces in between. Adrian has such a keen ability to keep track of details that people have asked if she is a robot. She is not a robot. 🤖

Adrian lives in Ontario with her family and a hilariously oversized english mastiff. In her oodles of free time, she is the founder of ROAME Wellness, a personal trainer, a holistic lifestyle & nutrition coach, aaaand a certified meditation instructor.
