Marijo

My background is different from most leadership coaches. I was an independent producer and writer of television documentaries and co-owner of a production company. I was passionate about the work and thrilled to receive a National Emmy Award in 2004 for a two-hour PBS special about the Senate Watergate Hearings. Earning an Emmy was a dream I had had since high school.

In the normal course of interviewing scores of people for various projects, I came to understand the power of personal narratives and how compelling those stories were.  When I changed career direction and peeled back the layers of the work I had once found fulfilling it was learning about people and understanding them through their personal stories.

I funneled my experience as a trusted interviewer and listener along with my business experience into working with leaders in pursuit of their strategic goals and performance objectives.

I am a certified leadership coach, member of ICF and certified to administer the Strong Interest Inventory.
