Professional Bio:
Following several years of professional sales and sales management in the forest products industry, I completed business school and transitioned to human capital consulting. As a practice leader and managing director at larger consulting firms, my focus has been on helping companies build a people strategy and the disciplines to execute that strategy, including organizational change management, cultural transformation, learning and development, communication, team effectiveness, performance management and organizational design. Project work over the years has focused on the human capital side of large, complex business initiatives. My role in this work has included large-scale project management, group facilitation and instruction, and thought leadership around the change initiative. Most recently, I returned to industry to build and lead a change management team that helped execute the transformation of a $25 food distributor with a people focus on driving sustainable EBITDA from the most critical suite of initiatives.
