Learning is the DNA of change.

Rapid technological change, the climate crisis, and other complex challenges are fundamentally transforming how we learn and work. To empower each other and innovate, we must invest in four key areas of self- and organizational development:

Learning Agility

Cultivate active learning strategies for uncertain and complex circumstances, so we can shape and adapt to change, both individually and organizationally.

Resilience

Regulate our internal systems to reconnect with vision and purpose, manage risks, cultivate a bold imagination, and find the right cadence for change.

Diverse Collabs

Learn, work, and partner with people who contribute socialization patterns, disciplinary and technical expertise, or generational wisdom that is very different from our own.

Glocality Expertise

Integrate awareness of global change drivers with context sensitivity, ensuring our approaches are globally informed but tailored to local needs.

I support individuals and teams in rethinking and redesigning their learning & development strategies to build organizations that excel in these four areas. I draw on:

PhD Research

Expertise in global education, curriculum development, and teaching innovation focused on North America and the European Union.

Over 10 years of driving successful education programs for learners from 80+ countries, supporting international faculty in innovating their teaching methods, and working with diverse teams in globally networked organizations such as New York University and United World Colleges.

Cross-Sector Skills

Facilitation, training, and coaching strategies adapted to the needs and contexts of leaders and teams in education and research, foundations, hospitality, medicine, death care, marketing and retail.

Topical Expertise

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging; Gen Z and the transgenerational workplace; inclusive learning experience design; digital literacy and AI; conflict resolution; effective strategy development, end-of-life care and death literacy.
