Background

About Libby Halstead

I work with leaders navigating disruption and change in their markets. By facilitating strategic dialogue, I help teams craft their path to business growth and create viable plans to implement while working as a high-performing team. I also work as an executive coach, consultant, and facilitator of leadership development programs with individuals and teams seeking to increase their self-understanding, impact and performance. My dual backgrounds in human development and strategy consulting allow me to span and connect the “EQ” and “IQ” dimensions, which is crucial for leadership success. I help clients to feel comfortable, understood, and challenged as they explore insights and new ways of working. Key metrics of success include achieving business objectives, and bringing your best self to work. Areas of expertise include operating as a high performing team, implementing strategic change, stakeholder mapping and influencing, emotional insight and awareness, working together with people with diverse personality types, effectively delegating and managing, constructively managing conflict, and developing improved cross-cultural awareness and dexterity.
