CORE OFFERINGS

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
