LEADING CHANGE THROUGH PEOPLE
Driving Culture Change
Does your workforce embody the skills, attitudes and behaviors needed to achieve your organization’s vision, strategy and objectives? As your strategy adapts to changing markets and disruptive innovations, so should your workforce culture. Employees and managers need to know what they as individuals need to do differently to get out in front of the evolving strategy. Clearly articulating those changing expectations engages your workforce to collectively drive change and achieve objectives.
A successfully fostered culture can improve your team's productivity, health and well-being, and engagement. (source: Forbes). Culture Forward can partner with you to:

BIO
KAREN MCDANIEL
As a Bay Area native, I am passionate about creating an employee experience that helps people thrive. I have over 19 years of experience leading change with people, processes and technologies that fuel engaging workforce cultures. Having worked with large global tech companies like Intuit, Inc. and Varian Medical Systems as well as small startups like Wisk Aero, I recognize the influence workforce culture has on actual business results. My skills in trust building, collaboration, design thinking and strategic alignment help me get to the root of what needs to be improved in your culture, develop an actionable plan, and design resources that drive change.
Certifications in Brain Based Coaching (NLI) and Diversity & Inclusion for HR (Cornell Online University) inspire me to take a human centric approach to engaging the workforce and embracing change as an opportunity. I meet people where they are and inspire them with a compelling vision of what is possible.
