CoS MENTORSHIP + WORKSHOP

LEARN+GROW+TRANSFORM A well-equipped Chief of Staff (CoS) provides both the operational acumen and strategic foresight necessary to translate the CEO's vision into actionable priorities, bridging day-to-day operations with high-level strategy to drive sustainable progress. The Chief of Staff works behind the scenes to support the leader, ensuring smooth operations, anticipating needs, and providing counsel with a calm and discerning presence. The Chief of Staff is someone with the intelligence, adaptability, wisdom and steady focus, pivotal in optimizing the CEO's time, streamlining executive priorities, decision-making, and fostering cohesion within the leadership team. Yet, most organizations miss the mark by underestimating this role’s importance.

With a distinguished background as a Chief of Staff and strategic thought partner to leaders of esteemed institutions, and a proven track record of guiding nonprofit arts and cultural organizations through complex, high-stakes transitions, I bring the experience, insight, and skills essential for helping organizations unlock this critical component of leadership success.

I curate and lead peer-learning workshops and mentor Chiefs of Staff to become the unsung heroes of executive leadership—driving unified decisions, maintaining an agile and dynamic executive team, and fostering an energized, high-morale culture that keeps teams operating at full throttle. These workshops blend coaching, peer learning, and a sense of fun, all aimed at refining skills, emotional intelligence, strategic thinking, and problem-solving, as well as supporting personal growth.

Complemented by 1-on-1 Coaching and Advisory, I ensure that Chiefs of Staff not only integrate smoothly but also evolve in alignment with executive ambitions and the organization’s mission.
