strategize next steps
PArtnering with leaders & Teams during moments that redefine direction
There are moments when the usual approaches stop working.
When the path forward is not unclear because of effort, but because something fundamental is shifting.
I partner with leaders and leadership teams during periods of transition, redefinition, and critical decisions, when clarity, alignment, and sound judgment matter more than speed.
This is not about adding more activity.
It’s about orienting to what has changed, naming what matters now, and deciding what comes next with intention.
Primary Starting Point: Decision Clarity & Strategic Pause
When leaders reach out, it’s often because they are carrying a decision about direction, role, structure, or priorities that hasn’t yet been named clearly.
The Decision Clarity is a short, focused engagement designed to create space to think clearly before acting.
Decision Clarity For Individual Leaders
For leaders navigating complexity, transition, or redefinition
A focused 1:1 engagement to help you step out of engagement and into perspective.
Together, we:
Clarify the decision or inflection point you are actually facing
Surface assumptions, constraints, and blind spots shaping the situation
Identify what needs to change and what must remain stable
Define grounded next steps that align authority, role, and direction
This is especially helpful during:
Role or scope change
Organizational restructuring
Leadership transitions
Moments when “what worked before” no longer fits
Outcome:
You leave with clarity, orientation, and a decision you can stand behind.
Schedule a Decision Clarity Conversation.
Decision Clarity For Leadership Teams
For leadership teams at turning points, when what worked before no longer fits and the next step is not obvious
A short, structured engagement to help leadership teams slow down together, align around what has shifted, and decide how they will move forward.
This work often focuses on:
Shared direction and priorities
Role clarity and decision rights
Trust and communication under pressure
One critical shift that unlocks alignment
Optional Extensions:
Follow-up integration session (90–120 mins)
Team pulse check-in 30-60 days later
DISC-informed team insights (non-prescriptive)
Outcome:
A leadership team aligned around what matters now, and how they will move forward together.
Schedule a team conversation.
Ongoing & Complementary Work
While Decision Clarity is the primary starting point, I also partner with leaders and organizations through longer-term engagements as needed.
Leadership Partnership
Ongoing thinking partnership for leaders navigating the “messy middle”
Sounding board during periods of sustained change
Support where judgment, not just execution, is required
Team Facilitation & Strategic Sessions
Leadership alignment and redefinition sessions
Strategic pauses during growth, restructuring, or transition
Focused conversations where trust, clarity, and direction must be rebuilt
Organizational Consulting
Transition and redefinition strategy
Culture and alignment
Leadership succession and role clarity work
DISC Behavioral Assessments
Used to support awareness, communication, and team dynamics
Integrated into broader conversations about role, decision-making, and fit
Why Work With Me?
I partner with leaders and teams navigating complexity and transition. My role is not to prescribe quick fixes, but to help leaders and teams:
See their situation clearly
Make sound decisions at critical moments
Move forward with alignment.
