Summary
I’m hired by leaders who are ambitious but are exhausted by teams that need way too much hand-holding. These leaders are in crazy-making environment and never have the time to figure out what needs to change. I enabled them to empower their teams to work more independently, so there’s time to focus on the big picture and act strategically. Core Competencies include: Team Building & Coaching, Master Facilitation Skills, Design Thinking and Agile Strategies, and Global Delivery.
