Executive Consulting

Leadership isn’t about having all the answers. In my 30 years of working with executives and organizations, I’ve found that true transformation rarely starts with a perfect solution. It begins with a powerful question(s). These aren’t the easy, surface-level inquiries asked in meetings just to check a box. They are the questions that follow you back to the office and to home, the ones that echo after the workday ends.

Learn the essential leadership skills for designing effective change. Discover how to build strong teams, co-create a shared purpose, and solve big problems systemically.

Leadership isn’t just about achieving goals; it’s about doing so in a way that aligns with your values and builds trust. Authentic leadership starts with intentionality and self-reflection, two practices that allow leaders to remain true to themselves while empowering those they lead.

Taking ownership of your actions, decisions, and leadership approach is a foundational element of authentic leadership. This concept, known as "agency," is at the heart of what separates good leaders from great ones. Leaders who embody agency empower not only themselves but also their teams to take initiative, align with shared values, and rise to challenges with confidence and purpose. Here, we’ll explore how agency strengthens authentic leadership and shapes more adaptive organizations prepared to face the demands of an evolving workplace.

Leadership defines the path of success or failure for every organization. At its helm, the CEO is more than just a strategist; they are a cultural architect, shaping how teams collaborate, innovate, and thrive. When a leader embraces discipline and vision, they ignite growth and inspiration. But when a CEO becomes reckless, their behavior can derail progress, destabilize teams, and erode organizational health. Have you worked under a leader like this?

Leadership often starts with the small things. For me, it began with notes. Lots and lots of notes. Early in my career as an HR executive and consultant, I realized how important it was to document my thoughts, observations, and decisions. Whether negotiating an exit package, redesigning an organizational structure, or recommending someone for a promotion, there was always a note sitting quietly in the background. These notes, over time, painted a vivid portrait—not just of an organization's culture but of the daily priorities and challenges leaders face.
