“For Fully Engaged Workplaces and Lives, I believe that the focus must be on the uniqueness of the organization and individuals. Tapping into that uniqueness is also a critical factor in achieving success. I have witnessed how the potential of combining our collective intelligence, wisdom and individual gifts creates a synergy that has a power to make the impossible…possible. Accessing whole people systems is vital for organizations to thrive and expand their potential. As a coach, I am the person who believes in you and provides an environment to stimulate creative tension that will provoke you to move in the direction that matters to you. As your consultant, I will analyze your current reality, your assets, challenges and goals with the intention to achieve or exceed your greater vision and build in sustainable change approaches. As a trainer or educator, I seek to integrate and engage learners’ intrinsic motivators through experiential and sustained learning methodologies.”
