What I Offer
I offer coaching and consulting to leaders interested in accessing and creating compelling visions of a future they want to create; and who want to discover satisfying and fulfilling ways to apply their skills, talents, and abilities as they work to bring that future to life.
I work primarily in the medium of language and conversations - which includes the body and emotions.
My work draws from a variety of disciplines, and is based on three simple practices: grounding, centering and opening. Each of these practices is applied at the level of self, other, and larger whole, leading to an increase in awareness and intelligence that can move us closer to a sustainable civilization.
Here’s how they nest and support each other:
Individuals: Grounding Ourselves - Building the Body of a Leader
- Reclaiming the gifts you have held in exile.
- Connecting to the intelligence of your body and emotions.
- Becoming a more appreciative listener - to yourself and others.
- Identifying and resolving repeating patterns that keep you stuck.
- Dissolving compartmentalization and leading a more integrated life.
Groups and teams: Centering Ourselves - Creating a Leadership Community
- Fostering relationships of trust, respect and compassion.
- Developing competence for handling conflict more skillfully.
- Shifting from blaming and complaining to responding and adapting.
- Replacing confusion and disengagement with clarity and commitment.
- Building capacity to deal with dilemmas, messes, and wicked problems.
Organizations: Opening Ourselves - Practicing Leadership in a Living World
- Listening as leadership.
- Creating cultures of collaboration.
- Integrating indigenous wisdom with contemporary knowledge.
- Moving beyond problem-based thinking into imaginative innovation.
- Engaging multiple stakeholders in creating a future distinct from the past.
