You’re ready to transform and elevate your organization.

I utilize my 20+ years as a leader and extensive leadership development expertise to customize virtual and in-person speaking engagements and development programs to meet your organization’s needs.
Speaking Topics
When is the last time your leadership team joined together, in-person or virtually, to learn new ideas and spark fresh thinking about leadership? How would your team benefit from thought-provoking insight to expand their leadership perspective?
An interactive speaking engagement is a simple way to refresh an exhausted leadership team. Kick-off your next event with new concepts to uplift the engagement and motivation of your team.

Leadership Development Programs
Are the leaders on your team struggling with how to adapt to the demands of today’s business environment? Are they grappling with how to maintain engagement and inspire their team members?
My programs are facilitated in-person or virtually. I focus on skills that are most essential for leaders today and content that centers around self-awareness.
I’m ready to support your team’s leadership skills. Recent Programs include:
Let’s connect and determine the best ways we’ll be able to work together.

Lee has a team of directors and VPs with varying degrees of leadership experience. The team is not aligned in their approach to leading their division, and Lee is challenged with how to align the team. He is spending a lot of his time coaching his leaders, and given the lack of alignment with the team, is spending time smoothing out communications issues and stepping in to resolve conflict.
To create alignment, I’ll work with Lee to customize a virtual leadership team-building session, which includes leadership development content to build common skills on critical leadership behaviors. We also work together to build team norms, and to improve how the team functions.
In addition, Lee arranges for one-on-one coaching for each of the leaders, where they’ll all take leadership assessments. Through our individualized time together, each leader will develop a personal development plan that is aligned with the critical behaviors of the team.
The result is improved communication, synergy, and ultimately an increased productivity of the leadership team and their individual teams, too. Lee spends less time on resolving conflict and more time on strategy.
Julie is a newly promoted Senior Vice President in a global organization with a large leadership team reporting to her, all in different time zones and locations. A few of her new direct reports were peers in her previous role, and Julie knows it’s important to start off on the right foot in this new working relationship. The other leaders are new to her, and she wants to start her new role feeling confident and wants to set herself and her team up for success. Yet, she doesn’t know where to begin.
To support Julie in her transition, I’ll work with her in a one-on-one coaching engagement, to help her increase her self-awareness, minimize her blind spots, and accelerate her transition to her broadened role.
In addition, I’ll also act as a consultant to help her to align her team to a shared vision and purpose. I’ll facilitate a series of virtual group-working sessions resulting in shared understanding of team purpose and critical leadership behaviors. In this scenario, Julie also decides to include two individual coaching sessions for each leader as part of the package to help them devise their individual development plans as well.
These scenarios are examples of some ways I consult with clients, though they are certainly not exhaustive. I’d love to develop a customized experience tailored to your organization’s needs.
