Leading your Organization to the Next Level

Welcome!

Hi, I’m Angela, and I help leaders develop organizations that sustain growth.

And I’m a big lover of visuals and have a way easier time thinking when I can draw out ideas… so you’ll often find me with paper or a flipchart. Even more fun than one flipchart is many flipcharts!

Although I have been in the leadership space for over thirty-five years and have been consulting and helping clients, it’s only recently that I formalized developing this site to provide a resource to organizational leaders.

The Riveting Conclusion

After decades of:

  • leadership experience in organizations of all shapes and sizes,

  • reading hundreds of leadership books,

  • studying graduate-level courses,

  • consulting scholarly and industry studies of high-performing and effective organizations,

I came to a compelling conclusion.

Effective organizations are run by effective leaders.

“No duh,” is what many would say. (And I don’t blame you if that’s what you thought!)

But reality is harder than the concept.

Because the problem I had as over the decades I was struggling to become an effective leader was, “What’s the plan?”

There didn’t seem a systematic way to learn how to lead an organization effectively. Not just general leadership, but specifically how to lead an organization or part of an organization.

So that is why I developed the Effective Ecosystem, a holistic leadership approach that enables leaders of organizations, departments, and teams to succeed.

The Effective Ecosystem

The Effective Ecosystem is a holistic, integrated leadership approach that enables leaders to develop compelling clarity in how to be an effective leader of an organization (or part of it, for you department and team leaders out there. You’re still an organizational leader!).

Organizations are systems, and fixing one part of the organization may not bring long-lasting results if the rest of the organization is addressed. In fact, sometimes the unintended consequence is changing one part breaks another part somewhere else!

That’s why it’s important to lead an organization in a strategic and systematic way, not just randomly addressing whatever the fire of the moment is.

In this blog, we’ll be looking at the various parts of the ecosystem to understand how to lead effectively. I’m planning on posting one a week (wish me luck, since I’m also doing consulting jobs!).

And in the meantime, please feel free to reach out to book an Effectiveness Accelerator Session, a thirty-minute free call, to discuss how to increase your business or non-profit’s ability to elevate your organization.

Great to meet you, and I hope to talk to you in the future!

Business and nonprofit leaders want to increase their results and crush their goals, but don’t always know the best next step to take.

In my blog, I share principles and tips so that leaders can develop thriving, productive, and effective organizations.
