I'm a social-personality psychologist, author, coach, and the chief researcher for the Deloitte Greenhouse. I’m intrigued by the many ways we can integrate empathy and creative problem-solving into our work, our lives, and our relationships. These are my favorite topics to think, talk, and write about. In my current role at Deloitte, I guide leaders and teams to explore how their work is shaped by the mix of individuals making up the team and I coach them in creating cultures in which each member can thrive, contribute at their highest level, get creative together, and get more of what they want from work and life. I'm the primary author of the Business Chemistry Blog and I’ve co-authored two books with my Deloitte colleague Kim Christfort. Most recently we released The Breakthrough Manifesto: 10 Principles to Spark Transformative Innovation. Previously we released Business Chemistry: Practical Magic for Crafting Powerful Work Relationships. I also recently released a more personal book—Divorce by Design: What If Staying or Leaving Aren't Your Only Options?— about challenging the default, conventional solutions to an unhappy marriage, and applying design thinking to create a divorce that's better than the norm. In it, I tell my story, with its ups and downs—the happy, hard, and humorous times. I also share my expertise in creative problem-solving and offer practical advice for readers who want a third option, one that's better than staying miserably married or tearing their family apart. Prior to joining Deloitte, I worked at the Great Place to Work Institute, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, and Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Along the way, I've earned a PhD in social-personality psychology from the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, as well as an MBA from the Stern School of Business at New York University. I am a trained professional coach, certified by the International Coaching Federation and the Coactive Training Institute. While I live in New Jersey now, I have strong Minnesota roots. When I can get to the woods, mountains, or a lake, those are my happy places. I'm an unapologetic introvert, so if I'm not out in nature, I'm probably on my sofa with my books, my space heater, and my dog, Lucy. Of course I sometimes venture into the world of other humans, to do something fun with my kids, hang out with friends, or volunteer in my community. Those moments bring me joy. So does arriving back home.
