After decades of leadership across multiple sectors, I created Crosscurrent Strategies to provide personal support to executives and organizations in the public and private sectors who are navigating a rapidly changing world.

As a trusted peer executive, I can help you catch a breath and think ahead, take big steps to get things moving, and be heard in a noisy environment. 

  • As a veteran consultant, analyst and strategist, I can help you understand your changing landscape, craft smart and sophisticated strategies, and harness the revolutionary potential of artificial intelligence. 
  • As an experienced leader, I can help you navigate high-wire challenges, manage change, strengthen your teams, realign processes, and provide “get it done” project management when you need an extra set of hands. 
  • As a national communicator, I can craft speeches and commentary that get noticed, train you for media appearances, build strategies that go beyond boilerplate, and provide crisis communications support. 
  • As a certified executive coach, I start by listening.  I can help you unstick your thorniest problems, be a thought partner to draw out your best ideas, and provide the candid feedback that’s hard to get at the top.
