Organizational, Leadership and Team Development
Utilizing transformational processes and tools, I help individuals and organizations discover how to make the most of strengths while becoming aware of blind spots, biases and areas for growth.
I help teams look at how power, communication, cooperation, and information are shared within flexible and fluid relationships that adapt to changing conditions. This is very different than simply getting people in separate boxes on the organizational chart to like each other. An inclusive, honest and kind environment where people share information, invite collaboration, and have authority keeps organizations from becoming mired in policy and bureaucracy.
Facilitation
My role as a facilitator is to allow creativity, vision, respect, deep listening, innovation, risk-taking, and honesty to flourish within an effective process. A professional facilitator is there to uphold the process, not a position.
Even if you have a talented facilitator as your leader or part of the team, there are times when you want that person to be able to join the process rather than lead it. Or, you may recognize that facilitation skill is a gap on your team. Whatever the reason, hiring a professional facilitator makes sense from an organizational perspective
Chronically poor meetings are terribly expensive in terms of:
- Lost wages for each “wasted” meeting hour
- Productivity and lost opportunities
- Low morale and disengaged employees
- Staff turnover: loss of experience, recruiting, hiring, and training are costly
Coaching
For managers, leaders, teams, individuals, work groups - everyone benefits when people have the opportunity to:
- Work and live according to their values
- Be self-honest about what they need to change or what holds them back
- Take focused and intentional action to create beneficial change
- Expand satisfaction, success and confidence
Immunity-to-Change: Harvard University’s premiere personal and organizational change process
I was trained by Dr. Kegan and Dr. Lahey at Harvard to facilitate Immunity-to-Change experiences for teams and individuals. If your organization has invested considerable resources in professional development without seeing real and lasting change, this process can illuminate the problem and path to real change. It goes beyond where most professional development stops.
