I feel so fortunate to be able to help my talented clients shine at their best. I I look forward to helping you unlock your full potential for success. Now, more than ever, we need creative solutions to challenging problems. Innovation is by its nature disruptive but we would not evolve if we didn't continually challenge the norm to improve our possibilities. My coaching is supported by 25 years of corporate leadership. My studies at Stanford and Berkeley in sustainable business and climate solutions facilitates integrating ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance). My passion for people supports you and your journey.
When I founded my Italian Import company, Daisy Arts Inc., I didn't imagine that I would be setting new trends for new business standards. Designing, manufacturing and marketing hand-crafted, sustainable luxury goods made in Italy had a unique set of challenges. We established a robust niche in the high-end stationery, leather, and home-goods sector that resulted in global sales to customers ranging from Barneys to Warner Brothers.
Our mission to support traditional craftsmanship with a cooperative of handicapped adults succeeded well beyond our expectations. We were also able to innovate and support green materials which became integral to our business strategy over two decades of broad-based success in the International gift market. We established what I called then a bio-diverse bottom line to capture our social and environmental achievements.
My coaching practice has over the past three decades consulted and designed for a wide range of organizations including individuals, teams, corporations, start-ups, media companies, tribes and non-profits. My special sauce is curiosity and agility in coaching, design, manufacturing and messaging and of course a passion for sailing that supports leaders and their teams.
I have helped many craft studios update designs and operational capacity for strategic efficiency and increased sales. I have helped many retail chains provide unique and timeless product to their marketplace. I have helped organizations and business' break through barriers to double their revenue and become leaders in protecting people, planet and profit.
Bold doesn’t have to be brash and success does not have to trash.
