I work with leaders, teams, and organizations ready to make a change.
Whether the shift needs to happen within a person, across a culture, or throughout an entire system, I bring consulting, coaching, and methods that go beyond the conventional.
Change rarely lives in one place. The work of shifting a system often starts with the work of shifting ourselves. These three areas connect, even as each stands on its own. Wherever you start opens a door to change and ripples into the other areas.
I want to lead differently
Working with executives, managers, and emerging leaders, I create space to look honestly at how you use power, how your identity shapes your impact, and what a more ethical, relational way of leading could look like.
“Working with Louise helped me trust what I already know and get clearer about where I want to grow, especially in my understanding of inclusion, power, and leadership identity.”
Maureen Johnstone
Leadership Coach
Together, we create a space to reflect on how you use power, increase awareness of your impact, and learn to lead with equity, trust, and courage.
Together, we explore how your leadership impacts racialized colleagues and build actionable strategies for anti-racist leadership — the inner work that makes culture- and systems-level equity work possible.
Together, we build the capacity to notice harmful patterns, understand your triggers, and lead in ways that actively dismantle harm.
Together, we strengthen your ability to use power more consciously and lead from a grounded, self-aware place.
I want to change our culture
Working with teams and organizations, I help you look honestly at what's happening — and build something more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable in its place.
“Louise’s ability to create space for creativity and growth is one I haven’t experienced before.”
Crystal Fach
Founder, DiversityEd - Safer Spaces
Together, we help your team see the whole system, make sense of what's happening, and get aligned to move forward — through change, conflict, or growth.
Together, we make equity a lived reality across your culture, moving through four phases: Assessment, Analysis & Meaning-Making, Implementation, Accountability & Sustainability — building on the inner work leaders bring to the table.
Together, we unpack how power shapes gender dynamics and build the capacity to create cultural change that is inclusive, sustainable, and rooted in equity.
Together, we build collective capacity for constructive dialogue, accountability, and solutions — without blame.
I want to shift the system
For collaboratives and groups engaged in creating sustainable, system-level change, I journey alongside you.
"Louise's systems coaching helped us integrate our core feminist practices into everything we do — even in a crisis environment, where the temptation is to move fast and move over conflict. "
Corey Allison
Executive Director - Artemis Huron
Together, we help your collaborative understand the whole system and find collective ways forward.
Together, we help collaboratives see where power concentrates and build structures that share it more equitably.
Together, we design leadership and decision-making models that reflect the values of equity and shared accountability.
Together, we build the roadmap and the will to sustain equity work across organizations and sectors over time.
Most people reach out when something isn't working and they're not quite sure what. That's exactly the right time.
I draw on a range of evidence-based frameworks and embodied practices in the work we do.
Every engagement starts with a conversation, so it’s rooted in what works for you, not a formula.
No matter the service, I’ll identify what's in the way and build a path forward with you, through human conversation, ensuring we have what we need, and facilitated sessions that get us to what’s next.
