About

I'm from Alaska. The terrain is challenging here. It's unforgiving. Mountain climbers hire guides with experience on specific mountains. Ship captains hire pilots with knowledge of local waters. These climbers and ship captains are experts in their own right. They know how to climb or sail. However, they benefit from someone who has been up that specific mountain. They decrease their risk when they're with someone who has navigated that specific harbor.

I help leaders accomplish rare or once-in-a-career moves:
Navigating rapid growth or change without slipping, confidently implementing leadership succession or transition, building a solid and reliable board or leadership bench quickly, facilitating difficult and high-stakes conversations.

These situations are too important to be on your learning curve alone. Trust an experienced guide who has climbed this mountain many times. I'll help you focus on what only you can do well.
