Strengths-Based TEAM facilitation & Leadership coaching
 

Change is hard for most leaders, managers and teams. More often than not, change results in unintentional disruption that fails employees, clients and partners. I work with leaders and teams to flip the script on transition by anchoring clients in their strengths to support learning, growth and impact. 

Using Gallup StrengthsFinder assessments and other tools, I bring an asset-based approach so leaders and teams to ensure pragmatic steps to achieving what's possible.
