Lucinda is masterful in working with leaders to cultivate strong interpersonal communication and conflict resolution skills. She leads the client in developing the qualities of authenticity, trust and courage that are essential in building high performing teams.
She believes that leadership presence can be learned and works with her clients to cultivate the capacity to remain centered while under pressure, the ability to advocate without aggression, to effectively blend with the needs and concerns of others and to compel them into action. Lucinda has extensive training in the area of somatic Leadership. She looks not only at what a leader says and does, but also at how body language, mood and tone effect communication and the perception of others.
