“That is the Zen of work, the decision to sanctify the work you do - not because the company requires it (which of course it does) but because the salvation of your soul demands that the work you do every day be crafted like a poem, be composed like a work of art and illumined by a halo of profound significance. Herein resides the renewal of the work ethic.” -Peter Koestenbaum
Integrated organizational development
Holistic and lasting change comes through a virtuous cycle of:
Assessing the present state and stage of the person or business (reality)
Defining a future desired state (vision)
Determining how we want to work together (culture)
Building for growth (strategy)
Taking action on what matters most (courage)
Communicate all of this to the stakeholders for the growth of impact and belonging.
“I’ve had the privilege of working with Jesse for the last 16 months. In that time, she has become one of my most trusted leadership advisors. She has coached me through significant transitions and is working with our leadership team to guide us through a transition that will transform the culture of our 40-year- old company. Her depth of leadership knowledge coupled with high EQ and a calming presence help create a space in which we can be transparent. Silicon Valley had Bill Campbell. If I had the budget for an onsite full-time coach, I would invite Jesse to fill that role for our firm. Everything rises and falls with leadership, and Jesse completely gets that and works to get everyone focused on that truth to lay the proper foundation for success.”
