Presenters
Laura Finfer, Founder & Principal, Leadership Excellence Consulting
I bring three key ingredients to each engagement: intuition, a grasp of organizational dynamics and humor. While the work may delve into tough, uncomfortable territory, I share my insights and observations in a direct yet sensitive manner. And context matters; the system and its culture shape what is (or is not) valued. This perspective is integrated into the work. Finally, a sense of humor creates an informal, appealing atmosphere. My goal is to build on the talents and accomplishments of the team/leader, elevating them to the next level of excellence. I am exhilarated by what clients achieve over the course of the engagement. I received a Ph.D. from Purdue University in Industrial-Organizational Psychology and am a licensed psychologist in NY State. Active in professional associations, I am passionate about female entrepreneurs and devote time to supporting their development. I also advocate for workplace inclusivity for individuals on the spectrum. With 25+ years of experience as an internal and external leadership expert, I co-founded LEC in 2008.
