Joanna’s approach to leadership coaching and consulting is generative, ontological and strategic. Her approach is generative in that she focuses clients on strength-based conversations that build momentum around what people want to generate more of, both individually and collectively, to propel meaningful change. Her approach is ontological in that she helps people become more effective observers of themselves, to see new possible actions that generate both desired and unexpected results. Joanna’s approach is strategic in that she continuously guides clients to clarify their vision and strategy, to align all other efforts and systems with this ‘anchor’ in mind, and to adapt to their continuously changing landscape.
Joanna has a Masters degree in Organizational Change from the University of Toronto and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Western Ontario. She completed her diplomas in coaching through the Newfield Network and in Emotional Intelligence through the Institute for Health and Human Potential. Joanna lives in rural Ontario, Canada with her husband, their rescue dogs and formerly-feral cats.
