What costs people and organizations is not workload. It is disconnection.
Disconnection from yourself, from your team, from the mission that brought you here.
It shows up in every industry, and it doesn't fix itself.
Clarity and a commitment require discernment, agreement, and alignment.
About Cindy
I'm a coach and advisor, with a unique background as a PhD ethicist and former CRE and higher education leader. I've spent decades leading within complex, global, mission-driven organizations, including Georgetown University and the Urban Land Institute.
What I bring leaders and organizations is the ability to connect quickly to the deeper truths of what is happening.
Moving forward begins with a serious discussion about your opportunity.
Cindy Chance, PhD, Founder
In a transition that is getting tougher? You’re not alone.
What got you here probably won't get you where you are being invited to go now. The leaders I work with are often facing:
Challenging organizational dynamics
Gaps between strategy and execution
Burnout
Values misalignment
Governance challenges
None of us can see the whole picture from inside the snowglobe. That's what a partner is for.
What my clients say…
“Cindy helped me see patterns I’d been missing for years. Within two months, we’d restructured our leadership team and our board finally understood our strategy.”

My focus is you and everything you are creating.
Diagnosis — I surface what isn’t working. Most leaders are misdiagnosing their own situation.
One-on-One — Conversations with you and your key leaders to understand what’s operating beneath the surface.
Review — Business communications, process and document review to validate what the conversations reveal.
Strategy — We work through findings together until you are satisfied we have identified root causes, identified the most aligned approach to change, and can benchmark progress on a new path starting now.
Actionable Plan — A realignment plan with continued accountability so progress is visible and measurable. I stay engaged as an implementation partner.
A customized approach delivered by me:
You don’t need a multinational consulting firm or a new FT hire to improve your results and move forward. You need one person you can trust.
