Tough times require courageous and emotionally intelligent leaders who dig deep inside themselves to inspire others and spark change.

At Activus, we cultivate purpose-driven leaders, teams and organizations to succeed from the inside out, for ever greater impact.

 

We live and are asked to operate in an increasingly VUCA world: Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous. In such conditions, even the most resilient leaders and teams struggle to stay afloat, let alone move forward with purpose.

I know. I’ve been there. For twenty-five years, I’ve worked on some of the most intractable world crises and conflicts for the United Nations, government and global non-profit organizations. From investigating genocide in Rwanda and Bosnia to preventing war with North Korea, I’ve worked as a change agent, collaborative innovator and strategist. Through all the crisis and upheaval, I realized something important: with the proper guidance, the very conditions that create uncertainty, confusion and stress can be the catalyst for the deepest and most meaningful transformations. Pain and potential are two sides of the same coin.

The most sustainable impact requires that organizations lead with their values in all aspects of their activities and operations, guided by courageous, inspirational, and emotionally intelligent leaders. Creating sustainable change in the world starts on the inside. It is both my joy and my privilege to be your partner on your journey to transformational leadership and organizational excellence.

I am truly blessed to have Stephanie in my life. She has been my strongest supporter and toughest critic. Her coaching has introduced a whole new laser-lock on truth as a tool and we’ve used it: In a short time period, Stephanie helped me completely wake-up to a situation I had not ‘read’ with clarity...I cannot recommend Stephanie highly enough.
— Meg Jones, Former Chief Economic Empowerment, UN Women
