Hi, I’m Miranda, founder of Thrive Potential, LLC. An evidence-based professional development coach and consultant, I’m driven by empowering professionals and developing teams. By nature, I’m an improver and supporter, and those energies come through in my work. I say what needs to be said, work hard to make a difference, and lead by serving others.
Clients appreciate me for being authentic, using my brain, and caring about their success as much as they do. I’ve been like that most of my life but I never had my sights on this type of work.
I came to professional development as a career choice the way many do: as a professional who was developing. As I progressed from organizational branding to organizational behavior, I got to look inside a lot of organizations and work with a lot of leaders. I quickly learned that everyone has some room for improvement. We either address it (and improve) or we don’t. And I like addressing it so much that I decided to make it my thing.
I believe that every person can and deserves to thrive. Thrive Potential exists to help in that work. As lead coach and consultant, I coach smart, forward-focused individuals who could use some support in their development, and collaborate with organizations that recognize the value—both bottom-line and priceless—of setting their people up for success.
I’ve studied and taught in many areas that help make me a better coach–concepts like communication, leadership, coaching skills, mindfulness, social justice, gender dynamics, organizational behavior, training and development, psychology, and emotional intelligence.
Here are some obligatory bullet points to back up the above.
