“Real change arises from the heart & agency of individuals who see audacious possibility and are willing to work collaboratively to make it happen.”

APPROACH: Holistic, Human-Centered Change
Organizations thrive when people thrive. When faced with change, success is less about the right strategy and more about the inner place from which those in an organization operate and how people come together to realize a shared mission.
We listen deeply and help leaders unwind, reframe and read the reality in ways that clarify actionable realization. Part consulting firm and part inner wisdom studio, our work integrates Fortune 100 business expertise with awareness training, experiential self discovery, positive psychology, neuroscience, and mindfulness practices. When we can bring deeper understanding and empathy to complexity, old habits and mindsets can be transformed.
We evaluate questions such as:
How do we better navigate current challenges and develop future growth opportunities?
How can we bring people together differently to create the impact we seek?
What’s missing or out of alignment in our change efforts?
Let’s Build Better Futures Together
Advisory & facilitation engagements are tailored to client’s unique needs, business landscape and objectives.
My role is usually more advisory than executional. Yet, I can also lead short-term program development and execution, to enable teams to stay focused on daily business.
As a seasoned on-site consultant and program lead for The Coca-Cola Company for nearly a decade, I understand how to respectfully integrate into ongoing project teams, work in innovation cultures and serve as a strong design & executional partner for visionary leaders.
Engagements are either project-based or retainer-based to allow for support flexibility and integrated team support.
