EXPERIENCE
Connie had always looked at life, and challenged others to look and live life, from a different lens. She is a skillful facilitator, process leader, presenter, and coach. She creates successful outcomes in facilitated sessions, learning processes for individuals or teams, and organizational leadership initiatives. Connie has 20+ years of seasoned consulting experience in the fields of leadership, organization development, and change management with both public and private sector clients and across industries.
Connie is deeply interested in people's potential; and she enables them to extend the contributions they make as they transform themselves, their leadership practices and their companies. She has a sound working knowledge of leadership, and human transition, which she grounds in practical strategies and processes.
A keen believer in the ease, grace, and beauty of life, and a strong commitment to other ways of knowing, has led Connie to balance her keen corporate focus with play, when she facilitates the dolphin adventures.
