I’m on a mission to help leaders use science to keep their people—and keep them well.

I help organizations solve complex human challenges through evidence-based speaking, training, consulting & research.

I draw on my own original research and over a century of insights from across disciplines—organizational behavior, psychology, sociology, and work design—and translate them into clear, usable approaches leaders can apply from anywhere they sit in the organization. Largely for free.

Grounded in evidence, most of what we cover costs nothing to implement, and doesn’t rely on waiting for system-level change.

With fifteen years of experience in healthcare leadership and organizational research, I bring academic rigor and real-world practicality together. I’ve led teams, published peer-reviewed research, served on multi-million-dollar grants, and co-authored five books, including two organizational behavior textbooks, The Human Margin and Genfluence.

I’m also a frequent keynote speaker, delivering 185+ workshops and presentations for leaders across the globe.

My passion is simple: turning research into tools leaders can use right now—at every level of the organization.

I hold a PhD from University of Alabama at Birmingham, an MPH from University of Texas Health Science Center, and a B.B.A in Finance from Texas A&M University.
