Our Core Values, Philosophy & Approach
Lead Right is a valued partner and trusted advisor. No matter the extent of our engagement, our clients’ interests and needs come first.
Success is measured by the ability of conversations to generate meaningful results for our clients. We invest time up front to understand the problems your organization faces, then we carefully design and facilitate the necessary conversations to align leaders and teams around impactful, actionable solutions. Every conversation ends with clear next steps and accountabilities.
When it comes to making effective decisions, Many teams either lack the right data, or suffer from data overload. Lead Right balances content, process and conversation in a way that enables attendees to use relevant insight to make decisions.
Unlike traditional “study and recommend” strategy consulting firms who tell clients what they should do, Lead Right custom tailors the process and conversations to help your organization develop your own solutions, which fit within your companies culture and constraints. With this approach, your internal capabilities and subject-matter expertise are complemented, not replaced, ensuring greater buy-in to solutions from the start.

I’ve known Stacy for many years and she’s a true professional and an expert in her field. She is an engaging leader and facilitator and I took as many of her classes as I could while we worked together at Cadence Design Systems. Her tools for tackling any tense and controversial situation are effective and valuable. Stacy’s able to address real situations, take hard questions, and keep the attention of genuinely busy people.
In the years I’ve worked with Stacy, it seems like I’ve had a personal consultant at my fingertips. One of the greatest values she brings me is creative, strategic solutions and programs, I never thought of; while identifying and solving problems I didn’t even know I had! Her entire team has become a trusted friend of Salesforce.com — assuring we provide state-of-the-art learning to meet our complex, high-tech business and people needs.
Stacy is absolutely fantastic to work with on organizational development initiatives. She is fabulous at setting fair expectations, providing great feedback, and motivating others. I partnered with her when I was at PayPal in our product management organization and she was unusually sensitive to PayPal’s cultural needs and constraints. She consulted with us, helped us understand what solutions would help us meet our goals. She designed and facilitated a program that was rated nothing less than excellent.
Stacy is a high energy, passionate advocate for people development. One of her best assets is that she wants to help people, and she spends her days successfully engaging and aligning people behind specific goals. Since she has become responsible for people development in Palo Alto, there has been a marked improvement in the learning culture and an increase in the local training programs. These positive changes are due in part to Stacy’s contagious enthusiasm for her work and the people whom she continually helps.
