WORKPLACE CULTURE CONSULTANT

Hi, I’m Beth – workplace culture consultant. I help leaders turn expectations, values, and engagement priorities into real behavior change that sticks, so teams actually work differently and perform at a higher level.

Early in my career at Booz Allen Hamilton, I worked in management consulting with financial services organizations in the U.S. and globally. I was part of teams helping leaders define strategy and set direction for where the business needed to go.

The strategies were thoughtful and well designed. But again and again, execution fell short. Not because the strategy was wrong, but because how teams worked didn’t change. The same habits, conversations, and ways of operating stayed in place, even when new outcomes were expected.

That gap stayed with me.

Later, in leadership roles at Northwestern Mutual, I experienced it from the other side. I was responsible for driving change while also running the business, with high expectations and little room to pause. Like most organizations, we relied on training. Some of it was good, but it didn’t stick. It took people out of their work. It happened in isolation. And once they were back in the day to day, old habits took over.

I experienced how hard it is to drive change when leaders are expected to do things differently, but the way work actually happens doesn’t change.

Through trial and error, I found a different approach. Not big programs, but small, consistent shifts in how teams work, built into the work itself.

Short, structured conversations lead to new behaviors.
Those behaviors, repeated over time, become habits.
Those habits become the norm.

That’s when change actually started to stick.

Today, I work with organizations that have a strong commitment to delivering meaningful impact for their employees, customers, and industry – and are ready to close the gap between these high expectations and how work actually gets done.

Given my financial services background, I often work with banks, credit unions, and insurance companies where performance depends on how teams collaborate, communicate, and execute under pressure.

I help leaders shift how teams work in a way that is simple, practical, and consistent, without taking people out of their day to day work.

What I bring is a mix of consulting, practical leadership, and global experience, applied in a way that works in the reality leaders face.

I’m based in Milwaukee with my husband and three kids. I’ve lived and worked in London, Tokyo, Johannesburg, and Bangkok – experiences that continue to shape the broad and inclusive lens through which I see leadership and teamwork.

If you’re trying to get teams to actually change how they work, not just talk about it, I’d be glad to connect.
