DBCo Member Spotlight - Dwight Aitkens
From Teaching to Tech: Building Global Impact, One Workflow at a Time
At Workhub @DBCo, our community thrives on innovation, collaboration, and the quiet drive to do meaningful work. Few people embody that spirit more fully than Dwight Aitkens, an Enterprise Account Manager at the globally recognized work management platform, monday.com.
Dwight doesn’t just manage accounts—he transforms how massive organizations work. And he does it all from the bright, plant-filled, community-powered coworking space that is DBCo.
As an Enterprise Account Manager, Dwight partners with global organizations to help them get the most out of monday.com’s customizable platform—a tool used by teams around the world to plan, run, and scale strategic workflows all in one place.
“I focus on expanding usage in a way that actually makes life easier,” Dwight says. “Whether that’s improving workflows, increasing visibility, or driving sustained business impact—our goal is always to help companies work more efficiently.”
The impact of his work is massive. Dwight shared one of his proudest moments: supporting a client’s transformation across thousands of people in dozens of countries. “Seeing one of my largest customers completely change how they work—that’s when you feel the weight and value of what you’re doing,” he says. “And knowing I played a part in that? That’s something I’m really proud of.”
Dwight’s journey into the tech world didn’t begin with code—it began in a classroom.
“I’ve always loved connecting with people and helping them solve problems,” he says. “As a former teacher, I transitioned into tech about a decade ago and quickly fell in love with the blend of education and business.”
That combination—curiosity, collaboration, and continuous learning—naturally pulled him toward strategic account management. In a fast-moving and competitive industry, Dwight’s secret sauce is staying grounded and authentic. “Tech evolves fast, and every company works differently. Being adaptable and building real trust has been key to making an impact.”
Dwight joined DBCo looking for something more than a desk and a decent Wi-Fi signal. “I was looking for a space that felt vibrant and welcoming, but also gave me the focus I need day to day,” he explains.
He found that—and more—at Workhub. “From the first tour, DBCo had that rare balance of community, calm, and character. It instantly felt like a place I’d want to be part of, not just work from.”
Ask Dwight what he enjoys most about working at DBCo, and his answer is immediate: “Honestly, it’s the people.”
“The mix of founders, creatives, remote workers, and small teams creates this electric energy that makes you want to show up and do your best work,” he says. “There’s always a good story, a helpful tip, or a laugh waiting in the kitchen.”
He also credits the space itself with contributing to his success. “The casual chats often turn into smart ideas or fresh perspectives,” he says. “There’s a real sense of camaraderie here. I’ve learned a lot just by being in the same space with folks who are building things and bringing big ideas to life.”
While the thriving community and collaborative energy are the clear highlights, Dwight has a few favorite amenities that keep him focused and comfortable.
“The phone booths are a game changer for calls,” he says. “But I’m also a big fan of the cozy corners, the natural light, and the jungle of plants everywhere. Throw in a member breakfast or an event now and then, and you’ve got a place that actually makes work feel good.”
“A big thank you to the DBCo team and community for creating such a thoughtful, energizing space,” Dwight says. “It’s rare to find a place that makes the workday feel this enjoyable. I’m grateful to be part of it and always up for a kitchen chat, shared lunch, funny story or spontaneous brainstorm.”
Dwight’s presence at DBCo reflects everything we believe in: meaningful work, authentic connection, and a workspace that inspires. Whether he's helping enterprise teams scale smarter or sharing a good laugh in the kitchen, Dwight continues to bring focus, energy, and heart to the community.
