As a coach and change management specialist, I have presented to a variety of professional audiences. This work has focused on:

• Integrating behavior change skills into daily conversations between clinicians and patients, and

• Elevating the content and energy of conversations to empower, delight, and deliver results.

 

In addition to conference presentations, I have given internal talks on the use of conversational coaching skills to clinicians, residents, and behavioral health staff at Atrius Health and to lifestyle program managers at Paradigm Health Plans.
