In business, human connection is everything.

Most companies vastly under-prioritize it.

I’m here when you want to change that.

Unlock hidden capacity!

I guarantee that your company has at least one big problem that would go away if the right people talked about it in the right way.

I find it heartbreaking to see so many businesses avoid the conversations that could so easily make them happier and more profitable.

I solve the human problems that get in the way. This sort of culture shift has enormous impacts.

Most conferences and business events are terrible. 
They can be great instead.

Are you running a conference? A festival? A leadership retreat? A fundraiser? An unconference? All these can be deeply meaningful sources of connection if you actually build them that way.

Let’s make that happen.

Wondering how I could help make your event better?

About Me

I love helping companies solve problems by making sure that they’re paying attention to both the brain-centered analytic side of things, and the heart-centered human side. I studied philosophy at Harvard, wrote a book that the LA review of books said “should be required reading for congress”, and have been published in the New York Times and other publications. I’ve helped hundreds of companies work together more effectively.
