“Most consultants have a “canned act” in their briefcase. They come to town and deliver. Lee Ann adapts her expertise to almost any situation. She looks at a situation to create something meaningful for the client. She is the most upfront consultant I’ve worked with. She assesses a situation immediately. She reads facial and body language immediately. She confronts and adapts”

“LeeAnn brings learning into leadership. A second year of growth! Can’t beat it!
She is teaching me how to “come into my own leadership style.” She looks at the kind of leader I am and the kind of the leader the school needs and assists me with stepping into leading.
How to build teams. She is showing me what it means to be an active team member. How to be it – how to communicate from it—and looking at what I bring to a team. I have learned that being a part of a team is a choice. Even if someone is sitting at the table without participation; that is a choice. She has taught me how to build the capacity to create a team.
Navigating systematic change. “I probably wouldn’t have been able to do this job without her. I had maxed out my own ability.” One of my team members said “LeeAnn is the first consultant who was looking out for the school’s benefit; not for her own business.” LeeAnn gets in and learns the system; she doesn’t force canned change. “She has taught me that systemic change is fluid and how it will flow is through people.”
