As a certified HBDI (Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument) Practitioner since 1998, I've worked with a number of intact work teams to increase their appreciation of the value of a hidden diversity - how we think.

Over the 20 years since I first began coaching in this manner, I've added to my understanding of different ways individuals interact, how groupthink gets a foothold, and how leaders and team members can unwittingly destroy the innovation they often seek.

Inclusion of a diversity of thoughts, ideas, and thinking styles on teams is a critical success factor for successful businesses of all sizes. I work with you and your team to expand your impact in this area.

So why does the entire organization seem to be designed to thwart the individual?

I work with your HR teams and select managers to evaluate your internal systems for alignment to the purpose of the organization, and help define the training for your people leaders. When the actions that come from these systems are aligned with the words being spoken by an organization's leaders, a strong culture that does care about (and retain!) people emerges.

And a big side-effect - your employees bring all of themselves to their work.

I blend multiple disciplines and methodologies into a customizable framework that allows you to make commitments with confidence.

During this 3-hour experience you'll learn repeatable actions and behaviors that will help you make and keep commitments to yourself and others. You'll put this knowledge into action during our time together.

An additional hour, a week later, is included for fine tuning your personal system, and for support.
