I am a differencist, consultant, strategist and executive coach, focusing on the key question of how individuals and organizations effectively deal with difference. I have lived in 6 countries, and have worked in 45 countries, defining organizational vision and strategy - ensuring everyone's voice is included, launching startups, developing large scale impactful learning solutions/programs, coaching executives, and enabling cultural transformation.
Even though I have a Masters on this topic, and moved internationally many times, I know that adjustment never ends. I specialize in both personal adjustment to any type of (human) difference, as well as professional management of difference across various identities, including cultural conflict management, and dealing with power and privilege.
