Stop Talking About Change. Start Practicing It.

Move from theory to mastery with evidence-based “diagnostic labs” that measurably shift how your team performs.

Are you tired of “flavor-of-the-month” training that gets forgotten by the next quarter?

Real transformation isn’t a lecture; it’s an experience. It’s about practicing difficult conversations, diagnosing team dynamics, and building new habits in a space that is both psychologically safe and highly accountable.

As an ICF Master Certified Coach and culture-change facilitator, I design and deliver workshops that move your leaders from knowing the theory to mastering the application.

My Approach: Why This Is Different

My background in driving culture change taught me that adults don’t learn from slides. They learn by doing. That’s why my workshops are “diagnostic labs,” not lectures.

  • We Run a Lab, Not a Lecture We operate on a 20% content, 80% application model. Participants bring their real-world challenges into the room and use them as the raw material for practice. They master new skills through structured role-plays, enactive rehearsal, and intensive peer coaching.
  • My Frameworks Are Scientifically Proven to Work You won’t get flimsy theories or personality-based fluff. My tools are built on decades of research into what actually motivates people and creates buy-in (like Fair Process, Goal-Setting Theory, and Self-Efficacy). You get proven protocols, not just good ideas.
  • You Get Practical Tools, Not Just Binders Participants leave with tangible, in-the-moment job aids and checklists, like the “High-Stakes Conversation Protocol” or the “P.R.O. A.C.T. Shared Checklist,” that they can use the very next day.

Featured Workshops

I customize every engagement so it speaks to the real lives of participants, but here are my most-requested programs. These topics span short keynotes, 2-4 hour deep-dive labs, and multi-session virtual programs.

1. Performance Development Catalyst

How to Hold People Accountable Without Destroying Morale

Best For: Leaders who dread performance conversations and are tired of “Performance Improvement Plans” that feel more like a “death knell” than a genuine tool for growth.

This workshop transforms your approach. You will move from being a manager who delivers a PIP to a leader who catalyzes development.

You will leave this workshop able to:

  • Stop the Guesswork: Get a proven, step-by-step framework that gives you the exact words to use in your most difficult performance conversations.
  • Gain Buy-In (Even for Tough Decisions): Master the “Fair Process Principle” to communicate decisions in a way that makes your team feel heard and respected, dramatically reducing resistance.
  • End Vague Feedback: Learn to write goals that are so clear, specific, and measurable that your employee knows exactly what “success” looks like.
  • Diagnose the Real Problem: Stop treating “resistance” as a personality flaw. You’ll learn to diagnose defensive behaviors (like “fight,” “freeze,” or “appease”) as signals of a “safety gap,” not a skill gap.
  • Rebuild Lost Confidence: Discover the specific coaching interventions that rebuild an employee’s self-efficacy—the number one predictor of their ability to learn and succeed.

2. Leading Change with Empathy & Accountability

How to Communicate Tough Changes Without Losing Your Team

Best For: Leaders who must deliver non-negotiable news or difficult feedback and are met with resistance, silence, or fear.

This “Diagnostic Lab” gives you a complete protocol for planning and executing high-stakes conversations. You’ll learn to balance empathy and accountability to build trust, even when the message is hard.

You will leave this workshop able to:

  • Plan and Execute Difficult Conversations: Master a proven, step-by-step protocol for high-stakes conversations so you can walk in with a clear plan, not just anxiety.
  • Build Trust, Even When You Disagree: Learn to apply the “Fair Process Principle” to make people feel respected and heard, even when they don’t like the decision.
  • Instantly Diagnose Resistance: Stop getting stuck. You’ll get a simple diagnostic tool to identify the real barrier to action (is it a Skill gap, a Logic gap, or a Value gap?) so you can address the root cause, not just the symptom.
  • Stop Seeing Empathy and Accountability as Opposites: Learn how to use empathy as the tool that makes clear, direct accountability possible.

3. Managing Up and Across with Empathy & Accountability

How to Influence Without Authority and Break Down Silos

Best For: Teams stuck in cross-functional conflict, or individuals who feel “stuck in the middle” and unable to get buy-in from other departments or their own boss.

This workshop uses an “Embodied Learning” approach to help you see and shift the invisible dynamics of influence. You’ll stop blaming silos and start building bridges.

You will leave this workshop able to:

  • Visibly Map Your Influence in the Room: You’ll physically feel the shift from a low-influence “Protective Posture” (like policing or colluding) to a high-influence “Integrator Posture.”
  • Get Colleagues to Follow Through: Use a simple shared checklist to create mutual commitment with colleagues so projects stop falling through the cracks.
  • Stop “Us vs. Them” Thinking: Learn to spot the real reason for misalignment—it’s often a gap in communication styles (e.g., Facts vs. Vision), not a “bad attitude” or incompetence.
