I partner with change-makers to craft solutions, designing work and life on-purpose.

I want you to be grounded in who you truly are & lead authentically from there.

Together we will cultivate courageous leadership, generating professional and personal growth, impact, and satisfaction.

How I support leaders

You want to spend less time firefighting interpersonal conflicts and fielding pay raise requests, and more time growing your business. The good news? Successful mergers, great leaders, smooth people operations, and effective work cultures each have certain things in common. You don't need to reinvent the wheel or outsource performance management to ChatGPT.

By tailoring evidence-based, established principles of workforce strategy, people operations, and change management to each unique operating context, I have helped dozens of executives build strong foundations in leadership, talent, compliance, administration, and culture.

My Approach

Individual Coaching

Who you are is how you lead.

Major changes? Feeling stuck?

Find clarity, satisfaction, and effectiveness as you stride boldly forward.

Resilient Teams

Powerful Cultures

Teams who master an inclusive culture hone an ability to see problems from many angles and without limitations. To reimagine and recreate the status quo.

Cultivate courageous leadership teams built on trust and effective communication, who innovate to become greater than the sum of their parts.

People still do all the things; if you want to get anything done, start with your people.

Build an effective, intentional culture aligned with your organization's values and objectives.

What Clients Say

"Carina is one of the most active and well-respected mentors at Endeavor! She's incredibly thoughtful and intentional in both what she communicates and how she communicates it. She brings a rare and valuable blend of empathy and understanding, while at the same time being clear and direct.

For example, in a recent mentoring session with a founder who was struggling with challenges around organisational culture, Carina highlighted that culture often reflects the founder - how they show up in the business and what they choose to tolerate in terms of values and behaviours. While this was a potentially difficult message to hear, Carina delivered it with such professionalism, empathy, and respect that it was received openly and constructively by the founder. In fact, he described it as one of the highlights of the session, as it gave him a new perspective and clarity on his role as a leader.
