As an Executive Leadership Coach, I have worked with hundreds of small business owners, physicians, educators, school administrators, heads of non-profits, CEOs as well as independent artists, writers, and designers on leadership skills within their organizations and in their communities. It is in this same spirit that I’ve coached political leaders in the United States and Canada. Time and time again these clients would tell me they wished I would work with their leadership teams, boards, and partnerships, so in 2005, I began advanced training in Organization & Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC) and joined the faculty of the Center for Right Relationship in December of 2007.
As of December 2008, I became one of the first 30 Certified Organization and Relationship Systems coaches in the world.
