I have been advising and supporting C-Suite leaders and Middle Managers working at the forefront of change throughout my career working with more than 200 individuals and companies in multiple industries – associations, technology, financial services, insurance, higher education and professional services. I also have a breadth and depth of experience in health care with more than 25 years of experience working with industry associations, providers, payers, national associations, medical device, and insurance organizations.
Through that experience, I have seen the need and value in strengthening organizational leadership in two areas:
​​
-
Balancing the C-Suite's strategic leadership with Middle Managers' people leadership
-
Refining the Middle Manager's role and strengthening their leadership skills
For executives, this means challenging existing assumptions, and requires rescoping the traditional leadership roles and responsibilities, raising the expectations and accountabilities of middle managers, and bridging the gap of understanding between senior executives and middle managers.
​
​For middle managers, it's about being more adept at strategic thinking, understanding how to communicate and work within the chain of command, better utilize their leadership in the middle, and provide stronger leadership.

Are you a leader who needs to reset your leadership style? Reengage in your business, and amp up your performance?
-
Are you in the C-Suite learning to balance a traditional command-and-control style of leadership with building and leading with influence? Would you like to engage more diversity and differing perspectives?
-
Are you a first-time manager or newly promoted middle- or senior-manager wanting to redefine yourself and your leadership?
