Communication
Catalyst Consulting
•Does "teamwork" seem to be an
elusive concept in your organization?
•Is there an increased need for awareness
and appreciation of diversity in your workplace
or community? Do people need to know what to do
next, and HOW?
•Do you see a need for improved communication
skills that could enable workers, managers, and
community members to express themselves more clearly
and to listen more carefully so that individuals
really "feel heard?"
•Do organizational changes and transitions
contribute to a climate a fear and mistrust that
hampers effectiveness?
•Do members of your organization experience
misunderstandings that affect their morale, job
satisfaction, and productivity? There
is hope. In my work as an organizational
and community consultant, I
have found that once we are able to move
beyond competitive frameworks, local coalitions
and cross-functional teams can be formed around crucial organizational
or community needs. Then new
alliances can be forged while seeking common
ground.
I can help your group
take the necessary steps toward:
• An improved climate,
• More effective teamwork,
• Managing transitions, and
• Transforming conflicts.
While "off the shelf" programs are
often easier, they can also be a "quick
fix" bandaid applied to a deeper organizational
need. Because every
organization is different, I focus my attention
on customizing my services
to meet the needs of specific clients and to
ensure sustainability for
long-term management of conflicts, changes,
and transitions.
I also specialize in helping organizations and
business respond to the needs of a diverse workforce
in a rapidly changing global environment. I
am particularly qualified and experienced in
guiding individuals and groups through times
of change and transition.
Whether providing:
• Workshops and Seminars,
• Refresher Tools and coaching, or
• Tele-mentoring,
...it is my commitment
to assist you in achieving successful, sustainable
organizational transformation.

Wisdom Guide for
Ceremonies and Transitions
I am a non-denominational Minister, and qualified
to perform marriages in
all 50 states. I am also a trained mythologist
and ceremonialist. Within
those frameworks, I offer design consultation
and officiating for weddings
that are "meaningful and spiritual, without
being religious."
I also design and guide other rites of passage,
including birth
celebrations, menarche (puberty) celebrations
for young girls, Croning
ceremonies, and memorial services. I also provide
house blessings and
ceremonies for organizational endings and beginnings.
“Dear Cynthia, Our ceremony was more beautiful
than we could have hoped for!
Thank you for all the time, thought, heart,
and attention to detail that you
put into making this experience so special for
us."
With love and gratitude,
P & M
