Testimonial for Cole Dolny
I had the privilege of working under the leadership of Cole Dolny for over 20 years at ASL Distribution Services Limited, and I can say without hesitation that he has been the most impactful mentor of my professional career. Cole challenged me, coached me, and provided opportunities that shaped not only my career path but also my personal development.
Cole leads by example, combining his engineering background with an MBA to bring a thoughtful, data-driven, and people-first approach to leadership. He is a true student of life—constantly learning, reading about best practices, and generously sharing his knowledge with his team. His relentless focus on people, process, and discipline wasn’t just theoretical—it was lived out every day, driving a culture of operational excellence throughout the organization.
What has always stood out to me is Cole’s strong sense of purpose. He consistently sought to create meaningful, sustainable impact—not just for the business, but for the people within it. He has an exceptional ability to blend strategic thinking with tactical execution. Whether setting long-term vision or diving into the day-to-day operational challenges, he maintained clarity, composure, and focus. This balance allowed him to lead with both foresight and precision, ensuring that strategy translated into real, measurable results.
One of the most defining experiences of my career was working alongside Cole to conceptualize and launch a new courier division: Precision Home & Office Deliveries. Together, we built it from the ground up, establishing industry-leading benchmarks in quality and performance for some of the world’s largest retailers and eCommerce brands. Our success wasn’t accidental—it was the result of out-thinking, out-designing, out-working, and out-performing the competition, all of which stemmed from Cole’s vision and leadership.
Through this growth, Cole entrusted me with increasing levels of responsibility, coaching me through multiple roles until I eventually became Vice-President and General Manager of Precision Home & Office Deliveries. His mentorship was instrumental in that journey. He consistently modeled ethical leadership, operational discipline, and a commitment to continuous improvement—always seeking to eliminate “muda,” the Japanese term for waste.
Cole Dolny is not just a great leader; he is a builder of people, a strategist with a tactical edge, and an ethical force in business. I am deeply grateful for his guidance and proud of what we accomplished together.
I had the privilege of working with Cole Dolny during a transformative period in my career. From the very beginning, he placed his trust in me, which allowed our professional relationship to grow quickly and meaningfully. What stood out most was Cole’s leadership style, he never micromanaged. Instead, he demonstrated a deep understanding of both people and business behavior, and he knew exactly how to bring out the best in those around him.
Cole is more than just a boss, he’s a true mentor. He believed in building strong, authentic cultures and had a remarkable ability to read people and situations with empathy, clarity, and purpose. His consistent encouragement, recognition, and sincere appreciation fueled my drive. He made me feel genuinely seen and valued, something I hadn’t experienced before in my professional life.
His leadership gave me energy, motivation, and a real sense of purpose. I was inspired to go above and beyond, not because I had to, but because I wanted to. That’s the kind of leader Cole is, he empowers people from within.
Cole Dolny is truly a leader of a different kind. I’m grateful to have worked with him and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking transformational leadership and mentorship.
