This is what’s behind Rachelle’s innate capacity to understand people, and how she’s become a highly respected coach, skilled facilitator, writer, and specialist in leadership development, strengths-based assessments, and succession planning.
In a former role as a CEO, she saw first-hand how dysfunctional work experiences impacted so much of people’s life experience. That lack of effective and courageous communication by leaders can not only challenge a business, but deeply affect the lives of everyone involved.
What she took from the experience was a bolstered determination to foster not only high performing, but better work environments – to reinforce the efforts of senior leadership, empower future leaders, and ultimately create spaces where people want to glean everything good out of their time at work together.
She began as a client of Einblau, then an associate for 16 years, and since 2018, she now boldly leads the Einblau team and clients into what’s next.
Rachelle’s guiding principle is that relationships make the work environment. As a result, she’s created leadership teams that are driven, have fun, grow through the lows, reach new highs, and celebrate the inevitable wins…together. Her greatest impact at Einblau has been to masterfully engineer workplaces that are intrinsically motivating and inspire great work, fairness, and inclusion.
With sound experience across multiple industry sectors, she’s a specialist in tailored leadership development programs and any company’s secret weapon to developing emerging leaders. Her lived-experience allows her to help leaders and their teams evolve to thrive when the challenges rise up.
Got something fast? Skis, cars – sporty, adventurous things? Rachelle is onboard. A social gatherer, she cooks for PEOPLE. The travelling-type, she’s our house-swapping, living-like-a-local, up-for-anything experience seeker. And this tenacious curiosity and love of people is what keeps Einblau on the leading edge.
