Leading at the Choice Point

The Reality You

Are Navigating

You’re carrying more than most people realize.

Leading a mission-driven organization today isn’t just about vision and results — it’s about walking a high-wire where every word, decision, and even your tone is measured against the values you champion.

Your team holds high expectations — not just for what you accomplish, but for how you show up. You’re expected to model the organization’s values, get every DEI and gender equity nuance right, use a collaborative decision-making model and have a flat organizational structure, be visionary, and still deliver extraordinary results. Oh, and impact. You're supposed to do that too.

It’s more than a delicate balancing act, and the weight of it can leave even the most accomplished leaders questioning themselves. I’ve seen brilliant people internalize excessive criticism, eroding their confidence despite extraordinary achievements.

I understand that pressure — and I know how to help you navigate it.

The Leader You Can Be

Imagine showing up with a steady presence, even when the stakes are high. Imagine having a team that not only shares your values but knows how to live them out in day-to-day behaviors. Imagine a culture where tough conversations build trust, not tension — and where your vision actually comes to life.

That’s the transformation I help leaders create:

First in themselves — developing the mindset, presence, and skills to lead with clarity and confidence.

Then in their organizations — shaping cultures where values and results reinforce each other.

This is the heart of Choice Point Leadership.

The Choice Point Leadership Philosophy

Over years of working with leaders in social ventures, I’ve found that the most sustainable, transformative leadership comes down to three core practices:

1. Mastering the High-Wire Balancing Act

Bringing your values to life while delivering results — with the skills, language, and structures that make both possible. We’ll draw from proven frameworks like The Leadership Circle Profile, David Emerald’s Power of TED, and OKRs to help you meet high expectations without burning out.

2. Embodying the Power of Presence

Leading from creative possibility rather than reactivity, and returning to presence the moment you feel yourself slipping. This is where the horses come in — they respond only to the energy you’re actually bringing, helping you notice old patterns in real time and shift back to your most grounded, confident self.

3. Shaping Culture One Choice Point at a Time

Recognizing and owning the micro-decisions that quietly — and powerfully — define your organization’s culture. What do you tolerate? What do you challenge? What’s celebrated? These daily choice points accumulate into habits — and habits become culture.

Why It Works

You don’t need another leadership fad. You need practical tools, deep insight, and someone who can see both your vision and the invisible forces holding it back. My work blends the rigor of proven leadership models with the intuition and precision of real-time coaching — so you not only know what to do, but you have the presence and structures to do it consistently.

Your Next Step

You’re already leading at the choice point — every day, in every meeting, with every decision. The question is: will those choices move you toward the culture and results you want most?
