Rearchitecting Work
POSSIBILITY PARTNERS UNLEASHING POTENTIAL
"Making a Difference While Making a Living"
VIEW OUR SERVICES
What if rather than thinking of work as a duty to survive until retirement . . . we thought about work as an opportunity for unleashing our potential in addition to earning a living . . . an opportunity to optimize our impact, influence, and contribution, regardless of our position . . . an opportunity to thrive with work conditions and leadership that reinforce our confidence, competence, and agency . . . an opportunity to be a member of a supportive, collaborative, inclusive community of possibility partners who genuinely support everyone's participation and self expression in cultures of psychological safety.

If these possibilities resonate with you, please consider becoming a member of our 300-person community of like-minded people, inspired by the famous anthropologist Margaret Mead, who wrote, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it's the only thing that ever has."Â Â

ABOUT USWhat we do
We collaborate with organizations, teams, and individuals who want to live more powerfully in embracing accountability for the achievement of their work and personal goals.
Our tools were developed with three key focuses:
- Expanded Human Resources Function that has an organization-wide impact on the culture and practices that enhance the holistic well-being of everyone at work
- Develop pragmatic, “clarity is kindness” operating infrastructures of best practices and standard operating processes
- Foster Possibility Partners relationships of mutual trust, respect, and psychological safety
Rearchitecting Work offers the possibility for individuals and organizations to realize their full potential – self-actualization -- the 5th need at the top of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Pyramid: 1) physiological, 2) safety, 3) love/belonging, 4) esteem, 5) self-actualization
Organization Consulting, Individual and Team Mentor Coaching
Explore how bosses can become mentors; "How's It Going" conversations can replace performance reviews; colleagues can relate as possibility partners; and "inspiring ownership for results" can replace "holding people accountable" mindsets.

In the words of inspiration from Margaret Mead, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it’s the only thing that ever has.” - Margaret Mead
Regardless of your role in your organization, you can be an influencer in changing not only the way work gets done, but also the how it gets done, based on the quality of the relationships and conversations.
Please join me live every Friday from noon to 1:00 PM CST for “Creating What’s Next” conversations to increase your personal agency and engaging others in designing the conditions for reimagining your workplace (and your life) to shift from managing performances to unleashing potential, and coming ever closer to achieving holistic success, defined as “Doing work you love with people you love for the reasons you love.”
