My education began in mathematics and now includes a PhD in sociology with emphasis in organizational psychology. I've written several books including my latest book, Unlocked: Discover how to embrace the unexpected and contributed to many others such as Smarter Innovation and Wake Me Up When the Data Is Over. I also write a blog, entitled Resilient Leadership, for Psychology Today.
In 1988 I founded Pelerei, a boutique consulting firm which specializes in helping organizations thrive in the midst of disruption.
Over the years, I've been privileged to work with wonderful people and organizations, including NASA, the Cincinnati Regional Chamber, Merck Pharmaceuticals, Walden University, Brookings Institute, NIH and PwC.
My goal is to help individuals, wherever they are in their careers, develop the resilient leader within themselves.
Let's explore how I can help you and your organization embrace the unexpected through strategies for building and enhancing resilient leaders, staff, teams, and units.
