Candidate Information
Kyle Dover
Kyle Dover is a founding partner of Teleos Consulting and he has over 30 years experience with executive and organization development.
Kyle holds a B.S. in Education and a Master's in Human Resource Management and Organization Development from Ohio State University. His consulting practice focuses on executive coaching and building organizations for sustainable success. He has a special interest in developing collaborative leadership skills throughout organizations.
In addition to his corporate practice, Kyle has previously done pro-bono coaching and consulting for non-profit organizations working in the areas of women’s rights, promoting women candidates, affordable housing, and literacy. Now, with the ACLU of Kentucky, he wants to work extensively on the critical topics of voting rights and reproductive freedom.
“I’ve served in as executive coach and consultant for several non-profit organizations, whose causes I believe in and support. I hope to provide that same type of pro-bono consulting for the ACLU of Kentucky.
I plan to work directly on two critical topics that are important for me – voting rights and reproductive access. In my leadership workshops, I teach the concept of informed choice. Also, I believe that the most successful cultures rest on two key principles – respect for the rule of law (not persons) and women’s rights. And, unfortunately, there’s never been a time in my adult life where both of these aspirations were at greater risk.”

He is also interested in the recent troubling recurrence of police misconduct that affects minority communities and looks forward to working on all of these issues as a Board member of the ACLU of Kentucky.

“Over the last several years I have had the privilege of working with the staff and members of the ACLU of KY as a community ally on an incredible range of issues. Together we are a family of hard working people fighting for a better life for everyone in our communities and I would like to serve on the ACLU of KY Board of Directors to continue to advance that vision of a better Kentucky we share. I hope my background in the labor movement will allow me to positively contribute to the excellent work currently being done and help to strengthen Kentucky's progressive movement.”
