UNDERSTAND CHANGE
LEAD WITH CLARITY
WRITE A NEW STORY
This Isn't Easy
“My biggest issue is I'm just not sure what to do first in terms of starting down a road to real change. It's overwhelming.”
That's a direct quote from one of my coaching clients.
And I hear that a lot.
With everything that's happening in the world today, school leaders need to stay current, develop a modern vision, and stay sane throughout the change process. I've helped dozens of leaders from around the world do just that.
Leadership grows from the capacity to hold creative tension, the energy generated when people articulate a vision and also tell the truth to the best of their ability about current reality. ~Peter Senge
Why me?
My 40 years of experience as a teacher, school leader, author, international speaker/consultant, parent, and absolutely passionate learner about this moment and the future makes me uniquely positioned to help you figure out what to do next.
Honestly, I love that Peter Senge quote. Visioning and truth telling are two of my strongest suits.
And there's nothing more interesting than being in a place where you are holding "creative tension" between those things. It's a place you need to be right now.
I can get you there.

If you’re looking for a real coach and critical friend and not just a cheerleader, get in touch. Today.
My work with educational leaders over the past 20 years has been focused on the new contexts, new practices, and new possibilities for schools. Together, we will forge new paths forward.
We'll work together on topics like:
- mission and vision
- developing common language
- building community cultures of learning
- communication and presentation skills
- the change process and immunity to change
- appreciative inquiry
- tracking and implementing new technologies
- leading for the future
- other topics we identify as needed and relevant
And if you want a more structured process, I've developed a personal change leadership framework which will lead you from old to bold thinking and help you write a new story of education in your school.
But regardless of which path we take, the real focus of our work together will be on you.
Because none of this matters if you aren’t fully formed and fully aware as a leader and learner for the kids you serve today. Today more than ever, we need school leaders who know that the world, their students, and their schools are not what they used to be. And we need leaders who are truly curious about what they can become.
I’d love to help you with that.
