I’m an educator, strategist, and business operator that works with leadership teams on their systems to transform their business model, invigorate their culture, and scale effective leadership across the organization.
I like to roll up my sleeves and dive right into the mess of real organizational challenges; I also like to move quickly towards a better way, and then move onto the next big problem to solve.
My secret sauce is my home-grown approach to leadership I call "Timeless Leadership." Built on 20 years of research and practice, I offer practical solutions for real people solving important problems - because we don't have time to waste on the wrong work the wrong way.
🚧 This site is still under construction as I stand up a new business venture - but the contact form below still works! 🚧
I'm not officially a "coach" although I use some coaching practices. Instead, if you engage with me as an advisor, I help you navigate through a mix of prompts that get you talking, and straight-forward recommendations for what to work on next.
The areas I work best at include core business strategy, practical leadership decisions, building culture, and running experiments.
As your advisor, we meet 1-4/month and for every 4-6 sessions set a goal to guide our agendas.
I do lots of project based work, from small planning projects (phase 1) to more extended engagements to implement a solution (phase 2) or series of solutions (phase 3).
Phase 1: We develop a plan to build and deploy a new solution to transform people and process.
Phase 2: I lead the project team and two-three workstreams; in less than six months your solution is built, tested, and ready to scale.
Phase 3: We continue our partnership by moving onto the next big area that needs attention.
My first thought when problem-solving usually is "who else should be involved here?" I thrive in building long-term, give-get relationships, connecting people, and fostering community.
