Authentic leadership in action
Carolyn Murphy is an expert in helping individuals discover how to lead authentically and making collaboration work for even the most complex teams. She embraces the “paradoxical theory of change” — which is that change occurs when an individual becomes what they are, not when they try to become what they are not.
Throughout her decades of coaching, facilitating, leading teams, teaching, and working as a psychotherapist, she has coached and consulted with all levels of leaders in over 30 client systems across tech, finance, pharma, biotech, government, and nonprofit organizations. She is a master at creating engaging, professional, and highly applicable learning programs.
Carolyn holds a clinical master’s degree in Counseling Psychology and is certified by the International Coaching Federation. She is certified in multiple assessment tools: MBTI, Hogan, Instinctive Drives, PRISM and CliftonStrengths. She has additional certifications and training focused on Kegan’s model of adult development, race and trauma in the workplace, and organizational effectiveness.
Carolyn works with leaders at iconic organizations around the world
