workshops

My workshops bring relevant, current, business-focused approaches to help your leaders address challenges and lead with confidence and competence. Workshops can be delivered in-person or virtually and range from 2-hour seminars to full-day immersive learning experiences.
The 2-Day program
The 2-Day program
My custom leadership development program, "Moving into Leadership" (as featured in the book, "Pitfalls and Possibilities: A Leadership Fable") is designed for new supervisors to learn the essential skills necessary to manage and lead in today's workplace.
the book
This is the story of two leaders, Jon and Avery, who learn what it takes to be an effective (and authentic) leader.
It's a great supplement for your internal supervisor training program or an excellent addition to your leadership book club!
I'd love to talk to your group about the challenges and approaches found in this story.
Purchase this book on any of the big sites or directly from me: here.
coaching
The most successful leaders recognize the power of an outside perspective. I offer coaching to any leader seeking an accountability buddy, an advisor, or a supportive coach.
Please consider adding me as a coach to your leadership development program.
custom programs
For over 25 years I have been designing custom leadership development programs for organizations.
No matter what level of assistance you need, I'm happy to help with:
- consultation to your T&D team
- facilitation services
- curriculum design
You can rely on my expertise and experience to assist you in all steps of the process.
emergenetics
Self-awareness is the foundation of effective leadership.
One tool that I trust is Emergenetics, a psychometric instrument that measures both thinking and behavioral preferences. It's one of the most effective tools for exploring self-awareness because it's reliable and easy to understand, yet complex in its insights.
Emergenetics workshops are fun, informative, and memorable and make a great addition to your internal leadership program or team development effort.
Please reach out to me to bring Emergenetics to your organization!
