Pam Rechel, Associate

Pam has coached hundreds of managers over 20 years to help them manage employees and make effective changes in their organizations. Pam has a special gift for helping leaders create a culture of accountability, be crystal clear in their thinking, and more effectively communicate difficult messages.

She knows it can be different and helps leaders and their teams to build resilience in the midst of constant challenge and change.
