Workplace Evaluation and Training

As a Sociologist and Social Worker, I have a lot of knowledge in micro and macro social systems. Not only can I provide program evaluation, I can also evaluate a work environment by implementing evidence based research practices that work. I have implemented both quantitative and qualitative research methods.

With over ten years in health care and organizational system experiences, I have a lot of professional experiences and educational background to bring to the table. I can detect unhealthy monkey wrenches in various systems and bring them to the light through assertive communication training, analysis of power relations (hierarchical vs. partnership models), psycho-education, effective leadership, team development, program evaluation, conflict resolution, and implementation of regenerative systems that work.

With extensive training in conflict resolution, I have been able to resolve emotionally charged conflicts between individuals, families, relationships, marriages, workplaces, and communities.

It is common knowledge that people who get along with each other are more likely to work well together. Improved employee morale and the development of good relationships in the workplace have the potential to improve the mood of employees, making them subsequently more productive.

My professional experiences working in complex healthcare systems and a diversity of work settings from academia to pink-collar jobs provide an eclectic mix of valuable work experiences, not to mention a deep appreciation of a diversity of personalities, values, communication styles, and ideologies.

My passion is to help individuals and organizations identify their strengths and weaknesses so they can evolve to another level of harmony, mutual respect, trust, and effectiveness. All human beings bring forward potential and value. However, not all business owners are trained in democratic leadership styles that work, nor are they aware of ideosyncracies in the work environment that are stifle growth and employee morale.

Today, the old “command and control” leadership model is giving way to “connect and collaborate,” and women educators are playing a central role in this important shift.

Communication is at the core of all successful business processes and procedures. As a result I provide communication training for supervisors and employees. Conflict is an inevitable reality that happens in all social settings. However, very few people are trained in healthy ways of resolving conflict. I have helped numerous people learn conflict resolution skills, which have ultimately created more harmony in their personal lives, families, and work settings.
