She is passionate about enabling individuals, organizations and communities to value themselves and each other in the ongoing process of change. She has guided hundreds of individuals, entrepreneurs, and over 750 foundations and nonprofit organizations to achieve tangible increases in impact and performance.

She offers coaching, team-building, and programs for those in transition and ready for lasting change. Whether acting as an employee, a consultant or coach, Wendy has learned that beliefs are the key lever for significant and sustainable change. Behavior change alone is not sustainable by itself.
