I help changemaker leaders, teams, and other Thinkydoers understand their strengths, increase their quantifiable impact, and become fulfilled in their careers (without masking or mind-reading). My "how?" Accessible, efficient approaches to strategy creation, alignment, and operationalizing for goal achievement, with a special focus on Objectives and Key Results (OKRs). The approaches I coach and teach today build on well-honed expertise leading adult learning, instructional design, marketing, creative strategy and strategic operations at some of the world’s largest enterprises, and in public sector and political roles. In my individual coaching work via Thinkydoers, I help people who are "wired differently" (or otherwise "not from Leadership Central Casting") build authentic, rewarding careers as the leaders of change our world needs today.

Hi Reader, Don't forget... I'll be live today at 9am Pacific / noon Eastern for:
If you can't join today, I'll host a members-only session on Wednesday, if that works better for you! And, it's been a busy week in content around here, so here are two quick highlights: The Science of PlayThis week's Thinkydoers is part one of another two-part series: this time, on the science of "play," and play as mindfulness practice (for people who may struggle to sit still). My guest is trauma therapist turned play activist, TJ Matton, and she's a truly delightful guest. If you hear the words "play," "mindfulness," and even "therapy" and cringe, this week and next week's episodes are for you. Listen on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts. Inside the Mind of an OKR CoachI completely enjoyed being a guest for an episode called "Inside the Mind of an OKR Coach," on Growth Dialogues Podcast, available on Spotify, or Apple Podcasts. P.S. Alright... this is the last chance to provide feedback via this season's reader survey if you haven't already! |

To be prepared for any outcome, I'd architected two different business plans for the last several months: One based on business as usual, And another based on the potential for significant...
Hi Reader, I have a favor to ask: I'm developing theories about how people in a specific role type might self-identify. It's tricky, because there are a bunch of disciplines and role types that these folks are found in, so this is a more psychographic question than demographic. Is this you (at work)(or someone you know or work with)?✨ Your role is a mix of air traffic control, people-ing, strategy support and thought partnership, and rolling up your sleeves and getting it done (and...
