She is on a mission to help create a world full of happier humans in high-performing teams and organizations. Christine has a background in enterprise technology and tech entrepreneurship, in product development and management, and in leading change. She loves working with extended leadership teams, helping tens to hundreds of people practice together to achieve the results and culture change they want to see and feel. Her current favorite is working 1:1 with individual leaders who are striving to up their game–to improve the value flow and culture of their organizations.
