I equip accidental leaders with the leadership confidence, team-building expertise, and business acumen they need to build successful companies - No MBA required.

Decision Breakdown happens when a good decision falls apart after the meeting. People leave with different interpretations, priorities start multiplying, and the team is not moving in the same direction.

I coach senior leaders in 10 to 100-person organizations to lead with clarity and confidence under pressure and turn decisions into clear direction and follow through.

We do that by building practical leadership frameworks leaders actually use:

- Clear strategic direction and priorities that stay focused long enough to follow through

- Leadership team meeting rhythms that drive decisions, commitment, ownership, and follow through

- Delegation and accountability that stick so you are not the bottleneck

- Stronger leadership presence, confidence, and self-awareness when the stakes are high

- Consistent talking points so staff, peers, and board hear the same message

My approach is practical and calm. We clarify the decision, confirm the direction, and leave the meeting aligned on talking points, ownership, and next steps. Debate well in the room. Leave the room aligned. Even if you are only 75% in agreement, you are 100% committed.

I bring 25 years leading in Fortune 500 companies and 8 years coaching senior leaders and teams to show you how to keep your team aligned and improve follow through.

About Me:

As a former Fortune 10 executive who led tens of thousands of employees around the globe, turned bestselling author, inspirational speaker, and leadership coach, I'm fueled by a passion for principle-based leadership and the transformative power of WE. My WSJ and USA Today bestselling book, "Begin With WE - 10 Principles for Building and Sustaining a Culture of Excellence" lays the foundation for a collaborative and inclusive approach to leadership, grounded in ten guiding principles known as The 10 WEs.

My Mission:

To inspire leaders and organizations to embrace the profound power of WE, fostering environments where collective success is prioritized over individual achievement. I believe in the impact of principle-based leadership and am dedicated to sharing these insights with a global audience.

What I Do:

- Author: "Begin With WE" has become a touchstone for leaders seeking to cultivate a culture of collaboration and accountability.

- Speaker: I travel the world delivering keynote speeches that empower audiences to rethink leadership through the lens of The 10 WEs.

- Coach: I work with leaders at all levels, helping them to harness the power of principle-based leadership to drive meaningful change within their organizations.

Key Accomplishments:

- Transitioned from a successful career as a Fortune 25 executive to becoming a bestselling author and sought-after speaker.

- Developed and implemented The 10 WEs, a framework that has transformed leadership practices in - numerous organizations.

- Worked with top-tier companies to foster environments that embrace challenge, own mistakes, and prioritize collective success.

Why It Matters:

The workforce and the workplace are constant change, leaving traditional leadership modes insufficient. A WE-mindset not only enhances organizational performance but also creates a more engaging, inclusive, and resilient workplace culture. By focusing on WE rather than ME, leaders can unlock the full potential of their teams and achieve extraordinary results.
