Founder & chief explorer at The Curiosity Compass, where I help leaders create positive change and respond creatively to problems. I encourage leaders to develop strategies by exploring challenges, being open to opportunities & possibilities, feeling empathy for others & having the courage to achieve their goals. There is no Google map showing us how to navigate challenges and solve problems. If there were, it would need to be easily revised since things will change. I guides leaders through this ever-shifting landscape by nurturing curiosity and innate creativity to foster personal and professional growth.With more than 20 years combined experience in market research, organizational development and facilitation, I love using my innovative approach to help leaders develop and implement new success strategies.★★DISCOVERY RESEARCH: Expand Knowledge• Apply creative thinking techniques to delve into consumers’ needs, beliefs, attitudes to understand behaviors• Empathize with consumers so they are open to explore their motivations, thoughts, & actions• Focus: consumer insights professionals and HR managers to explore consumer needs ★★CREATIVE LEADERSHIP TRAINING & COACHING: Improve Performance & Grow Leaders• Teach leaders to enhance their creative thinking skills to develop a vision, solve problems, improve group performance and achieve higher levels of results• Help leaders internalize new learning & build courage to change with integrated training / coaching programs• Focus: high potential, emerging leaders and established executives who are driven to make a difference★★DESIGN FACILITATION: Integrate Thinking• Inspire teams to engage imagination & be open to new ways of thinking & doing to achieve their goals• Focus: new product development, strategic planning, and organizational developmentwww.thecuriositycompass.comSharon@thecuriositycompass.com (m) 917.535.7961AKA/misspellings: Sharon Kessler, Sharon Walsh, Sharon deKorte, Sharon Dekorte
