Navigate the messy middle of growth with clarity and confidence.

As an experienced consultant, I help organizations create a clear path toward achieving the vision, culture and leadership team they desire.

As a business owner or leader, are you…

  • Struggling with growth — too much, too fast, or not enough?
  • Spending more time getting your team aligned than getting the work done?
  • Searching for systems and processes to make sure your strategy succeeds?

If any of those apply to you, I understand.
Even better, I can help!

The Right Consultant for Company Culture

“When we were looking for a business consultant, we interviewed there consultants. All candidates provided the same services & offerings, but ultimately it came down to the person. I looked for who would be the person who would be the right fit for where our leadership team was at. Michele has the ability to adapt to the people she is working with to create an authentic relationship.”

Claire Ferrara
President & CEO, Standard Heating & Air Conditioning

Depth of Experience and Knowledge

“We reached out to Michele knowing her experiences in her own business and familiarity with our industry. Doing so has only helped our team evolve and continue to improve. She does an amazing job of providing a balanced perspective. She really listens, and is great at nudging conversations along, mitigating our tangents, as well as raising thoughtful questions to gain perspective. It takes a thoughtful and insightful individual to manage a meeting well, and Michele does an excellent job.”

John Embow
President, Grove Roofing

Proven Process

“Using an Operating System helped WomenVenture put into place tools to plan, grow and scale our organization. It is a simple, practical and strategic approach that any nonprofit can use to get their teams crystal clear on the vision, and, just as important, a process to achieve it. Michele’s guidance has been critical to the implementation process, and her insights as a user of the system have been extremely valuable.”

Elaine Wyatt
Former Executive Director, WomenVenture

A True Coach

“Michele came alongside our team and provided training for us to collaborate strategically. At first, we needed more guidance from her, but gradually we understood the process and required less of her time. All along, her direction was thoughtful, clear and professional. Team members do not always agree and Michele always remains controlled and helpful.”

Paula Norbom
CEO, Talencio

Simplifying the Complex

“My favorite thing about working with Michele is how she helps us accomplish large tasks very quickly. She simplifies the steps and what needs to get done. She offers up ideas to keep the team moving. And because of her experience working in a family business she knows what we are talking about.”

Melissa Schulze-Pelland
President & Owner, Phoenix Fixtures

Keeping Teams Accountable

“For the past two years our senior leadership team has worked with Michele on creating a culture of accountability within our organization, and we continue to utilize the tools she’s given us religiously. Michele is a gifted facilitator who keeps us on track and helps us get ‘unstuck’ and out of our own way!”

Ann Cazaban
Executive Director, Southside Community Health Services

Facilitating Important Changes

“Michele delivered invaluable guidance to our company, which was instrumental in the successful implementation of a new leadership structure. Ultimately, her support helped our company redirect our focus to the things that really matter using the right people within the company to get the job done.”

Darrin Drosky
Vice President, Grazzini Brothers

“We truly appreciate the knowledge, compassion, and understanding that Michele brings to the table as our coach. We now have the skills and knowledge to look at our company from a different perspective, and have those difficult conversations while respecting everyone’s opinion and view.”

Lisa Schmid
COO/ Partner, Superior Consulting Services

“I want to thank you again for doing a great job of facilitating yesterday’s meeting! You do a great job of listening and putting all our scattered comments and remarks (noise) into cohesive topics that allow us to become more focused. I am looking forward to our next session.”

Tim Cartwright
Chief Financial Officer, Citizens Independent Bank
