Twenty-five years leading complex organizations, including as a superintendent, now focused on helping leaders in every industry do the same.

I have sat in the chair where the decisions are hard, the stakes are public and the people depending on you are many. That experience shapes everything I do.

AEB Leadership partners with corporations, educational institutions, nonprofits, professional associations and women in leadership. Whether you are stepping into a bigger role or steering an entire organization through change, you get practical strategy, honest counsel and a partner who has done the work herself.
