Background

About Lori James

With over 30 years of experience empowering teams, supporting clients, and generating results, my career focus has been on the value of relationship building – both internal and external relationships – and their impact on the bottom line. My career journey has taken me from for-profit work in the business communications and training field, to launching my own personal coaching business, to working in non-profit organizations. I have spent the last 15 years in senior roles within non-profit organizations guiding and supporting strategic planning, program development, human resources, funding initiatives, and stakeholder engagement. A rising tide lifts all boats. Inclusion, equity, and diversity help lift everybody, and it takes all of us to help raise the tide! In October 2022, I joined Making Changes Association as Executive Director. The association has over 40 years of empowering women, those who identify as women, and teen girls – helping them reach their full potential. The alignment of my passions, with the vision and values of Making Changes, is an exciting chapter in my life – bringing my experience and life-long focus on people, full circle.
