Danielle Joleigh “Dani Jo” Bennett is not just another consultant—she’s the one organizations call when the stakes are high, the problems are complex, and failure is not an option. A veteran, parent, leader, and coach, Dani Jo brings more than 20 years of battle-tested experience in the U.S. Navy, aerospace, defense contracting, and corporate transformation.

She cut her teeth managing $1.2B in defense contracts, leading joint military operations across Iraq, Syria, Kuwait, and Turkey, and earning commendations for operational excellence and people-first leadership. In the Navy, Dani Jo was known for doing the impossible: turning fractured systems into functional ones, guiding teams through chaos, and delivering results when others were ready to fold.

That no-fail ethos carried forward into her corporate and entrepreneurial career. As a Senior Program Manager and Product Line Leader in aerospace, she has directed multi-million-dollar R&D initiatives, stabilized underperforming defense programs, and negotiated contracts worth hundreds of millions. Her leadership has secured the U.S. Navy’s Columbia-class submarine initiative and redefined program viability in the defense and aviation sectors.

Today, Dani Jo leads as Founder, President & CEO of Radiant Legacy Collective, Inc., a multi-brand strategic architecture company. Under RLC, she applies her proprietary frameworks to steward growth across multiple ventures—including consulting, coaching, retreats, timber production, media, and franchised services. She is also the Franchise Owner & President of MosquitoNix Madison and Waukesha County, bringing precision, community care, and Radiant Legacy leadership into outdoor living services and seasonal brand experiences.

Through DS7 Precision Strategies, where she serves as Principal Strategist, Dani Jo delivers the sharpest edge of her work: executive coaching, leadership recovery, crisis stabilization, and organizational turnaround. Known for “fixing what others won’t,” she equips leaders and organizations with methods like Soft Power for Hard Systems™ and the Radiant Resilience Framework™, tools designed to turn pressure into clarity and disruption into resilience.

What sets Dani Jo apart is her ability to bring both precision and humanity to the table. She’s a strategist with the discipline of a Navy officer, the insight of a coach, and the heart of a parent. She believes resilience isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a blueprint. Every system she builds, every leader she mentors, and every organization she partners with is designed not only to succeed, but to endure.

At her core, Dani Jo is grounded in faith and legacy. She doesn’t just deliver outcomes; she helps leaders steward their influence with integrity, clarity, and courage.

Because when the mission is critical, when the system is broken, and when the pressure is on—Dani Jo Bennett is the one you want leading the way.
