How Intentionaleaders Began

I founded Intentionaleaders because I know what it feels like to have a career vision or goal...coupled with the uncertainty of how to achieve it. Other than keep working harder, smarter (duh), and well, harder--what are the secret ingredients to achieve those lofty aspirations? And how to tackle all those internal voices, you know the ones...how can I be my authentic self while navigating the varied political or organization cultures I found myself in? Am I doing this right? And if I am, why am I so stressed? 

Oh, how I longed for a clear path. And a wise, supportive mentor to guide me. Part cheerleader, part kick my ass, part educator--someone to walk beside me give me clarity and focus. Intention.

Intentionaleaders is about this path, this partnership, this guidance. To achieve your leadership aspirations, regardless of where you are in your career. New manager? Senior executive? I've been where you are. I've learned the hard lessons, I've taught and coached thousands of leaders. I can help you find your unique path.

Why Partner with me

I believe that at any age, at any point, people can learn, grow and change.  I’ve dedicated my entire life to that belief.  Learning and teaching are my passions and I’d love to share them with you. 

I can be fun to partner with because I:

  • Will always celebrate your strengths and talents
  • Can share leadership best practices, and how to be a great human being.
  • Have tons of determination and energy to help you on your leadership mission–whatever that looks like.
  • Have worked in large organizations, small organizations, non-profits and as a solopreneur. I can argue passionately for the value and challenges in all of them.
  • Am blessed to have several decades of experience in organizational consulting, leadership development, teambuilding, communications, interpersonal effectiveness, design and development and facilitation.  I share liberally.
  • Am a loyal supporter of my family, the UW System, Wisconsin cheese, pets, wine, caffeine and eating, but not necessarily in that order.

I believe that everyone deserves to work with one great leader.  And I believe that you can be that leader.
