CONSULTING

Group of people in a meeting room with large windows.

I help purpose-driven organizations thrive amidst change and complexity by integrating a dual focus on
inner and outer change.

Outcomes of engaging with my approach to leadership development include:

  • Deeper connection to purpose

  • Expanded capacity to see and work with our whole selves

  • Enhanced capacity to lead with integrity and courage

  • Stronger sense of connection to self and others

  • Clearer understanding of the systems in which we are immersed, and how they can be transformed

What People Are Saying

“Max served as our first curriculum advisor at Dalai Lama Fellows. If you want someone to support you to develop technical and adaptive skills on your own hero’s journey, or help you design a post-heroic leadership curriculum, or get in touch with your shadow mission, Max in your man.

— Bidisha Banerjee, Program & Curriculum Director, Dalai Lama Fellows

“It’s all too easy in this line of work to get caught up in the urgency of the now and prevailing cynicism that too often defines politics and government. Max helps remind us of the work we need to do on our ourselves so that we can be as effective as possible in the work we do for others. Our sessions with him have been like tune-ups for our engines for good.”

— Rick Jakious, Chief of Staff, Congressman Seth Moulton
