My mission is to empower leaders and their teams to thrive through transition and change.
As a Sociocracy Consultant and Leadership Coach, I have worked with organizations in Europe and the US, helping them transition to more adaptive, human-centered ways of working while building strength and stamina in ever-changing conditions.
With certifications in Sociocracy, Immunity to Change™, and Mind-Body Therapy, I offer a holistic path to organizational growth. By blending Sociocratic structures with building the relational skills needed for effective collaboration, I guide organizations toward greater impact with minimal disruption.
My approach draws upon 30+ years of experience, including Senior Marketing Analyst at a Fortune 500 corporation, CEO of a multinational import business, and Founding Director of an alternative school for pre-adolescents.
