Chief Executive Officer
CurrentI'm an entrepreneur, former intrapreneur, trainer, speaker, advisor and mentor helping mission-driven organizations and socially-conscious businesses achieve their next big initiative to rapidly expand their impact. I founded CSR Communications to help organizations move beyond grand gestures and bold statements, to organizational change that sticks. I've spent my career career saying what others are afraid to – and learning to say it in ways that others will listen. From challenging stereotypes of girls in my Catholic school more than 30 years ago, to my first job after college convincing nonprofits to engage youth volunteers, or my role as board chair of a global nonprofit transforming the way we do international development, I've experienced the challenges of leading big change within established organizations. I've learned lots of lessons, developed techniques that work -- and I'm willing to share them with others. I've has worked with global nonprofits, foundations, Fortune 100 companies, local governments, and federal agencies. I created the Intrapreneurs Influence Lab to provide internal change leaders the skills, support and insight they need to realize their vision with less isolation, frustration and resistance.
