About Cindy

I'm Cindy Chance, PhD, my mission is driving change for leaders and organizations to move from stalled to strategic, aligned, and growing. Most leaders I work with are ambitious and highly motivated, but stuck; they need change, but can't see what's holding them back. After two decades leading organizational change—and having developed disciplined approaches putting my PhD in ethics to good use—I may be your ideal partner in transformation. I know what it's like to inherit misalignment, to face board skepticism, to need results fast, and to be impacted by the dysfunction yourself. You wonder if the culture will ever shift. I've been in your shoes. My approach is different because it's grounded in both rigorous ethics training and real-world strategic and operational leadership. I spent two decades leading change, navigating many of the exact challenges my clients face today. Technology has added urgency but our challenges are still human. Transformation begins with you.

Why do I coach?

I coach to liberate you and realize your power to do good for yourself, your family, and the world. Coaching opens people to all they can be. You are ambitious and determined. So am I. The world does not always support people to be the best version of themselves. You need to get on your own side. I have been there, and I am on a mission to make sure that you get where you are meant to go and become who you were meant to be.
