Dedicated to Creating Healthy, Thriving Organizations

Over 30 years ago, while facilitating stress management workshops for Fortune 100 employees, Connie discovered the unhealthy stress and anxiety generated by toxic organization cultures – bad bosses, fear-based management styles, political in-fighting, employees under-appreciated and overworked, as well as dysfunctional decision making. If these were the best companies, what was happening at the worst?  Thus, she began a lifelong mission supporting leaders in creating healthy, thriving organizations and employees.

Academically Trained, Real World Grounded

Building upon undergraduate degrees in Psychology and Education from Montclair State University, Connie graduated from one of the most respected and highly-rated Master’s programs for understanding organization behavior,  American University and NTL Masters  program in Human and Organization Development..   Her real-world experience as a Quality Director and Director of Training for Johnson & Johnson, and Director of Organization Effectiveness at Freddie Mac, enables her to truly understand the executive role. In 1993 she founded Performance Partners.

As a lifelong learner, Connie regularly continues developing her expertise, including a two-year coaching certification from Newfield Network; a one-year executive teambuilding certification from Human Factors; certification in the Balanced Scorecard, by Kaplan and Norton; Culture Transformation Tools certification, by Richard Barrett and Culture Change, by Human Synergistics. Her unique expertise also includes development of proprietary systems, such as Performance Partners Strategic Start® and additional certifications too numerous and diverse to list, but happily shared upon request.
