Hello! I'm Rhonda Parkhurst. I've built my career on the belief that the heart of any organization beats strongest in its people – their interactions, their well-being, their combined potential. That’s why I’ve devoted my life to not just studying, but actively cultivating, workplaces where psychological safety and positive behavioral practices aren’t just buzzwords; they’re the way of life.
With certifications in both the Enterprise Psychological Safety Index Scan and The Fearless Organization Scan (FOS) from the Fearless Organization, I bring an informed and sensitive approach to measuring and nurturing the invisible yet palpable sense of safety within teams.
As a certified VUKA Facilitator, under the wisdom of Waltraud Glasser, I navigate teams through the choppy seas of modern business with a steady hand and a clear eye. My coaching in Positive Intelligence has turned me into an ardent advocate for 'Mental Fitness,' a concept that’s as vital to professional health as it is to personal fulfillment.
My toolbox is rich and varied: I’m a Behavioral Analysis Consultant specialized in DISC through People Keys, and I've also formed a partnership with Predictive Index. These roles have sharpened my insight into the complex patterns of how people work, think, and succeed together.
My academic ventures at the University of Phoenix and Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP) in Organizational Leadership have only deepened my understanding of what makes teams tick. This knowledge, combined with the principles of Maxwell Leadership's coaching, has been instrumental in shaping the leader I am today.
I live by the mantra that learning never stops – it’s an adventure that continually unfolds, and each day brings new lessons to apply both in life and in the work I do. I bring this spirit of curiosity and continuous growth to each partnership, ensuring that together, we can create spaces where everyone feels empowered to shine.
Collaborating with me means you’re not just gaining a consultant; you're gaining a partner, an advocate, a champion for your team’s journey to becoming a truly people centered fearless organization.
