Barbara Coffman-Cecil

Barbara Coffman-Cecil walks into widespread systems breakdown with the organizational learning skills needed to reach through to underlying possibility. Currently she is consulting with a council of health care CEOs entertaining radical change. She spearheaded movement into uncensored media in the Soviet Union and South Africa, was the Associate Dean of the School of Humanities at California State University (Long Beach), taught for The American Leadership Forum and countless senior leadership programs, and has developed a dynamic coaching program for people in transition.  She has pioneered the Coming Into Your Own leadership program for women since its inception 14 years ago under the auspices of a Fetzer Institute grant.  Her listening is finely tuned to deep calling that is both personal for each one, and a worthy response to the the need for a new collective identity at this time on this planet.  Barbara is a Founding Director of the Ashland Institute.
