MA, USINSPIRATION IS GOOD. INSIGHTS ARE BETTER. TAKING ACTION IS BEST. EDITH DELIVERS ON ALL THREE.
Like you, leadership & change expert Edith Onderick-Harvey knows that leading in today's world is more challenging than ever... constant change, escalating demands, increasing complexity. What does it take to be a great leader today? What will it take in the future?
Edith began working in change management in 1990, before most people had even heard of it. With over 25 years of consulting, speaking and real-life business leadership experience, her answer to those questions are unlike many other consultants and speakers. Edith shares with her audience that the more complex and rapidly changing the world is, the more leadership happens on a personal level. Leading means getting real. It means maximizing the power of every conversation, every action and every decision – by fully engaging and leading in the moment. Not spending more time... just spending it more wisely.
Edith has received rave reviews for bringing a "unique mix of strategic insights and a practical, results-focused approach..." to her speaking, consulting and facilitation work. She connects with her audience on multiple levels. A personal style that draws people in. Stimulating ideas and work-place examples that create credibility. And take-home value they can apply the next day. She motivates people to lean into change; not only to advance their company's business strategy, but for the personal and professional benefits as well.
Edith is the managing partner of NextBridge Consulting LLC, and the author of the book Getting Real: Strategies for Leadership in Today's Innovation Hungry, Time-Strapped, Multi-Tasking World of Work. Her insights have been featured in Fast Company, The New York Times, CNN.com, HR Executive, CLO Media, Yahoo Finance, and other media outlets.
Clients include Philips Healthcare, Akamai, Harvard Business Publishing, Eversource, NxStage Medical, and MIT Sloan School of Business. Her work has been called "best in class" and "cutting edge" by her clients as they address change, innovation and talent development.
Edith has a unique blend of success as a corporate leader, small business owner, and change and leadership consultant. She works with both regional and global clients. She has held leadership positions at Fidelity, BankBoston, and Bridge Avenue Partners. Consulting roles include those with Accenture and Tarkenton Conn. She is also a moderator for Harvard Business Publishing's corporate leadership programs.
Edith's breadth and depth of experience allows her to relate to diverse audiences, understanding their challenges and perspectives. As a speaker, Edith works closely with meeting planners and senior event sponsors to ensure they get more than the usual "cookie-cutter" presentation. Described as a "quick study" and a "business partner, not just a vendor," she connects with your audience in ways most speakers don't.
In addition to her professional work with both for profit and not-for profit organizations, Edith has worked on a personal level with Habitat for Humanity, Alzheimer's Association and other non-profits.
