When facing a new challenge, we often struggle at first because the skills we learned moving through prior challenges aren’t working. Our first response is to look for other ways to solve it rather than look inward and figure out how to learn our way forward or learn new skills.

When a storm approaches, bison turn into it because they know it will pass over them faster.

At Blue Bison Leadership, we look to bison for inspiration. We help you turn into the storm.

When faced with making changes to your leadership or personal life, support is a critical element to reach success when learning new skills. We support you every step of your journey through the storm with leadership insight, coaching, and learning.

Blue Bison Leadership and Coaching

Welcome to Blue Bison Leadership and Coaching!

I have over 25 years of experience developing leaders at all levels through leadership development programs and coaching in the private sector, public service, and academia.

I work with leaders at all levels to be successful in interpersonal relationships and enterprise-level strategic thinking. No challenge is too small or too big. We can face the storm together!

Coaching

I have been coaching friends and colleagues for years. In my 20s, I discovered that when people came to me to solve their problems they really wanted help solving the problem, not a ready-made solution.

As I became more interested in coaching as a career, I realized this is what coaching is all about - helping others help themselves.

I help you identify your strengths and unique experiences and work with your to build habits to help you move through your challenge faster.

If you are ready to follow the bison’s lead and turn into the challenge you are facing, I am ready to walk with you to help you develop new skills and give you all the support you need to make it through the storm.

Leadership Development

I have been teaching and supporting leaders at all levels for over 25 years. I spent the last decade focused on working with senior leaders on their personal and organizational leadership challenges.

One of the most common issue that creates challenges for us as humans and leaders is when strategies what have defined our success are now creating barriers to our success.

Leadership Courses and Assessments

I offer courses on a wide variety of leadership topics.

As I reflect on all the things I am grateful for, I find your name on that list. I think one of your greatest contributions is the way you treat people. You inspire me by the way you make others feel. The organization needed someone like you. I am very impressed with all you have accomplished at CI, and I am personally grateful for how you have done it.
