Integral to My Work

Care, Connection, Contribution and Choice are four building blocks that are woven into the work I do, resulting in effective teams and leadership that builds trust and improves performance.

Care

Care for self and for the well-being of others.
Care nurtures curiosity and openness, creates a space to surface shared interests and mutual understanding.
Care strengthens communication and understanding, reducing misunderstandings and making it easier to navigate challenges together.
When people feel cared for, they are more engaged, motivated, and willing to go above and beyond to support one another and the team’s success.

Connection

When comprised of members who care for themselves and one another, a team rises to the level of a connected team.
Connection spurs energy and ignites creative thinking when team members are aligned in a common direction and collaborating well.
A connected team thrives on trust, where individuals feel safe to share ideas, take risks, and rely on one another to achieve common goals.

Contribution

Members gain clarity of - and experience feeling seen for - their unique contributions (not only for what they do, but who they are).
Surfacing team member strengths, and sharing those strengths with others, supports people in feeling engaged with a sense of ownership and pride for their contribution. Sharing one’s strengths supports the team in knowing who they can lean on for what as well as identify (and support) when someone is not at their best.
Establishing a powerful, ongoing practice of giving and receiving appreciation– leading to a lasting cultural shift.

Choice

Interwoven among all C’s is choice – choice in how to engage.
We make choices in our lives every day, both knowingly and unknowingly.
“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” - Viktor Frankl

A Partner and Collaborator
in this Work

Jason Meucci and I crossed paths in 2019 in graduate school and share a foundational belief that the quality of relationships is a key differentiator in building trust and effectiveness on a team. The "C's," we have found, are at the core of developing a connected team and a culture where people experience feeling seen and heard and know that their contributions matter.

Independently through our own consulting practices, and well as together as co-facilitators, Jason and I bring the these principles to life within teams and organizations via experiential workshops.
