During the late 1980’s, while working as Director of Development for two successful start-ups, Anne experienced first-hand the challenges that entrepreneurs encountered as they go through the normal stages of organizational growth. Realizing that even the most successful businesses reach a point where growth is stalled, she became one of Toronto’s first executive coaches. Anne has done extensive work on global leadership development initiatives, providing both individual coaching and facilitating high performance team development at the executive and senior leader levels.

Anne has developed a unique understanding of what gets in the way of people becoming high caliber leaders. Her powerful insight into the emotional drivers of behavior moves leaders quickly past barriers to their success and that of their organization. While conflict is a normal part of organizational life, conflict on leadership teams creates silos, chaos and a negative work environment for employees. Anne’s approach facilitates clients to quickly resolve conflicts that interfere with organizational success and the well-being of leaders.

Anne’s work using psychometric assessment, psychological type, emotional intelligence and the dynamics of human behavior, influenced the development of the Striving Styles® Personality System (SSPS®) – a neuro-psychological approach to discovering and developing your full potential.
