Why you’re here
Today’s Leaders
Your workforce, investors, and customers want to work with leaders and organizations who are reframing how they operate to integrate recognizable improvements in social consciousness and environmental conditions as they grow. In turn, your stakeholders need your help to meet new reporting requirements, market expectations, and workforce expectations.
In short, we need leaders with decision-making and engagement competencies, and trust-building skills we can count upon as we grapple with challenging conditions and evolve to become engines for purposeful action and positive well-being. Perhaps we have neglected to value, access, and develop the leadership capacities we need to set and meet sustainability commitments.
As a veteran of sustainable business design and practices and a leadership coach, this reality couldn’t make me happier! Embracing and embedding sustainability is a way to add a larger purpose and capture shared value to improve business performance. It’s also a vehicle to successfully grow trust, develop talent, and add team cohesion in any work environment.
So why aren’t we making better progress as we respond to advancing climate change and social challenges? I believe it’s because This has been beautifully recognized and laid out by the worldwide group of experts who developed the Inner Development Goals. Please see them on my Coaching page on this website.
Today’s leaders are tasked with building organizational effectiveness and viability in a world that feels like it’s in constant change due to global uncertainties, technological advancements, shifting regulatory scrutiny, advancing climate impacts, new business models, unprecedented economic uncertainties, and increasing stakeholder demands.
How others experience your organization matters - its culture, its leadership, within the organization, and in its community and ecosystem, both internally and in public. This applies to the choice of strategy, mindset of leadership, business model, design of products and services, cultural profile, and how we measure, make decisions, and grow.
The wisdom of pursuing and capturing value from sustainability is finally beginning to be understood.
This work requires vision, accountability, collaboration, empathy, humor, and open dialogue. Please get in touch if you’re ready to discover and achieve impact for yourself, your team, and your organization. My passion is to support and empower leaders and emerging leaders who care about the future of our organizations, our species, and our planet and believe that we can still make a difference that will improve that future.
