Hi, I’m Olga:
I've been a senior-level leadership and organizational development consultant for over 15 years, serving in large complex government organizations.
I've been a trusted advisor and coach to leaders ranging from front-line managers to C-suite executives, helping them lead with desired impact.
And, I've been a leader myself.
I've taught leadership effectiveness skills and competencies to hundreds of leaders, from manager to executive, which prepared them for success in their next promotion or high-profile projects.
I've developed best-in-class curriculum for leadership development programs that not only incorporated the best of leadership theories and trends, but were also closely aligned to strategic business priorities of the organization.
People I’ve worked with say this about me:
Big-picture strategic thinker and leader by nature
Talented at recognizing patterns and interconnections
Seek out and make sense of multiple perspectives on an issue
Courage and skill to ask tough questions of those who have more power and authority than me
Willingness to voice the unpopular opinion, for the sake of arriving at a well thought-out strategy together
Challenge people’s thinking in a way that strengthens rather than damages our relationship
Holding my clients to high expectations in how they lead themselves. (I hold myself to the same standard first)
Having me as your coach and thought partner means you can get better results, sooner.
