Professional Development for Your Team Members
The High Cost of Turnover - and the Value of Strategic Development
Hiring the right people takes more than time—it requires thousands of dollars, hours of onboarding, and weeks of adjustment. According to Indeed.com, the average cost to hire a new employee ranges from $4,000–$20,000, not including salary and benefits.
If you’re investing this much in recruitment, the next step is critical:
How do you help your people grow—and stay?

Executive Coaching for Purpose-Driven Leaders
In addition to group workshops and team development, I offer executive coaching for leaders navigating complexity, growth, and change. Whether you're navigating a transition, guiding a mission-driven team, or seeking more clarity and focus in how you lead, coaching provides a confidential space to reflect, recalibrate, and lead with intention.
My clients include directors, senior leaders, executive MBA grads, and founders—many of whom are balancing competing priorities while trying to have a meaningful impact. Through coaching, they gain new perspective, strengthen decision-making, and improve how they lead themselves and others.
This one-on-one work complements organizational development efforts by reinforcing emotional intelligence, communication, and strategic thinking at the leadership level.
