With over 35 years of experience in human resources at all levels, I’ve dedicated my career to fostering positive workplace cultures and driving organizational success. I’ve navigated all aspects of the complexities of HR across multiple industries, from employee relations and professional development to conflict resolution and strategic planning.
I specialize specifically in:
Customized Management & Professional Development Training
Executive Coaching - Individual and Group
My passion lies in empowering leaders and teams to excel, ensuring that every individual’s contribution is meaningful and valuable.
I believe in the power of strong communication and collaboration.
I’m committed to creating environments where everyone can contribute their best.
I’ve navigated the complexities of HR across many and varied industries, from two person startups to multi-national corporations.
My training style has been described as engaging, impactful and actionable. I often share a wide variety of illustrative anecdotes gained over the many years of listening to people. Past participants have described this as the best part of the learning experience.
My coaching and mediation are highly effective because they begin and end with the specific needs of each individual.
None of this is possible, however, without the strictest level of confidentiality and professionalism which are the hallmarks of my consulting work.

Maximize Your Potential
Overcoming Leadership Conflict
-
Overcoming Leadership Conflict -
I have always believed that “conflict is inevitable but dysfunction is a choice.”
Ask yourself:
Is our leadership team willing and able to collaborate effectively?
Do individual conflicts negatively affect the entire team?
Do your team members communicate effectively, respectfully and professionally?
Do you have difficulty agreeing on goals, objectives and methods?
Is your team damaged by passive aggressive behaviors among its members?
Are you able to resolve disagreements positively?
Does the inability of your leaders to work together damage employee relations among everyone?
If you answered yes to some or all of these questions, I can help.
This is NOT a kum-ba-ya approach.
This is an in depth, hard hitting, honesty-forward and tightly focused process to identify barriers and to destroy them.

Busting Barriers
Behavioral Awareness Coaching
-
Behavioral Awareness Coaching -
If you have someone whose workplace behavior is disruptive, problematic or unprofessional, my Behavioral Awareness Coaching may be the answer.
A typical engagement could be working individually with a person who has been found to be in violation of your sexual harassment policy but not to the degree which warrants termination. Behavioral Coaching may be required as part of the overall resolution of the issue.
My approach has been proven to be effective because I possess a solid grasp of human behavior and how it manifests negatively in the workplace.
Sometimes people are aware that their behavior is unacceptable and do it any way.
Other times they are unaware of the offensive nature of their behavior.
In either case, my approach is to define the problematic behaviors, provide the person with self-awareness of the impact they are having on others and to give them actionable tools to improve.
