When coaching, I bring you the best of a 30-year career, leading nonprofits, practicing law, management, and team building. Using active listening, powerful questions, and creative solutions, I would love to help you and your team grow, lead, and stretch to reach your potential. Do you have a passion for your mission but get stuck in old habits that hold you back? I can help you re-focus on results, clarify priorities, and grow your emotional intelligence. Do strained relationships between Executive Director, staff and board members impede your nonprofit's success? I can facilitate stronger communication and build high-functioning teams. Empowering leaders and teams to change the world is my mission.I am PCC-credentialed with the International Coach Federation, and certified with TTISI to administer assessments including DISC, Driving Forces, and EQ. I am a mentor coach with Leadership Coaching for Organizational Performance at American University (partnered with Heidrick & Struggles), and a Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) with DC's Department of Small and Local Business Development. I teach Emotional Intelligence, Leadership, and Mindfulness workshops, ask about how to customize a session for your team.
