When a business or one of its core teams needs guidance, there could be no better person to look towards than a teacher.

She has focused a good part of her career on the education industry, helping schools and school districts evaluate what did or didn’t work and plan changes for the future.
Doctor O has addressed many contemporary issues in her extended podcast series. When her last (March) episode ended the host and guest were discussing the idea that change is inevitable, and change is good.

In this new installment, Dr. O will talk about change in general, the concept of change management, and ways employees can step up to meet changes. She will outline various change management models and explain that when change happens there can be a total cultural shift.
“My work is always layered. With the same client, I might have one-on-one sessions with senior management, do group coaching with the work team, and engage top-level directors or the C-suite in leadership coaching. I support everyone in the organization in getting more comfortable with changes particularly when it comes to systems and tools. When we acknowledge and support change, it flows through different levels of an organization.”

Catherine is that definitive authority and she has been published and appeared in media, such as Who’s Who with whom she received a Lifetime Achievement Award.
