Meet the Team

Who We Are

Each member of the Change Coaches team is here for a reason: because they share REAL leadership values (relatability, equity, awareness, and loyalty) in addition to being great at what they do. They also share a commitment and a willingness to go deeper than most other organizations would expect them to. When you work with Change Coaches, you experience the kind of psychologically safe environment where authentic transformation can take place. And you learn how to create that environment for your employees.
