About Goldfinch Leadership
Goldfinch Leadership LLC was founded to support small and midsize businesses, and creative professionals at all levels of their careers. We focus on leveraging creative problem solving, emotional intelligence and an ethical business sense when working with leaders.
Creative thinking can change people.
And creative people can change the world.
The Future of Work is Creative
It has become clear that Creative Thinking and Emotional Intelligence are no longer "nice to have" skills, but are essential to future-proofing yourself for unexpected and volatile change and technology that requires finesse.
Businesses will continue to adopt more technology to streamline workflow, communication and teamwork, and while AI has proven to be both a threat and a boon to business, it can also leave opportunities to leverage people and culture in new ways.
In a rapidly changing world, you approach your work planning in a multi-faceted way, and retooling requires a holistic plan. Where you once simply talked about strategic planning, you are now conceptualizing strategic scenario planning to fortify your business against the unknown.
Let Goldfinch Leadership help.
Goldfinch Leadership values every person’s ability to use their innate creative thinking talents to make big things happen. Each person has their own experience, motivations and world view to draw upon, their own natural ingenuity and talent, and a desire to find their purpose.
Our mission is to partner with people to increase their impact, pursue their purpose, and make positive changes in their work and lives. We do this by helping people embrace their creative selves and find sustainable ways to maintain success.

Goldfinch Leadership views the engagement as the utmost creative endeavor. Half of our clients view themselves or their work as creative, while the other half are more "creative-curious." Every person has the capacity for creative thinking, whether or not you realize that's what you're doing. We believe creative thinking can change people. And creative people change the world.
Why a Goldfinch? The American Goldfinch represents abundance, positivity and inspired energy. Fun fact: the female can build a nearly-watertight nest from disparate natural materials, and after nurturing the hatchlings, she hands off sole caregiving to the male until the young fly the nest.
