MY PLATFORM
Coaching pursuits of excellence. Training non-profits and corporates to turn every struggle and crisis into wins and strengths, personally and institutionally. Runs the gamut from 6Sig type work, analysis, qualitative statistics, problem solving, organization conflict resolution, improvement and development (the unique opportunities created by the conflict). I have an organizational conflict/functional stage diagnosis tool (with resolutions). I specialize in non-profits because they do the most good with the least $$ or at least want to, but will work with socially conscious for profits. I provide assistance at no profit making me an example of how institutions and companies can "unstick" themselves, fund themselves, and make their visions realities.. Conflict is NOT the wall blocking your vision but only a challenge to your motis operendi .
Conflict is actually the only path and portal to getting "unstuck" and finding change that strengthens, develops, increases opportunity, and exceeds your vision. The mission may be perfect, the message on target, but methods must adapt because this is life! The molting crab must break from its shell and grow a new and stronger one or its shell becomes its casket.
