Leadership that feels human again.
HEY THERE, FRIEND
I’m Michelle Kay Anderson.
……
I help leaders and teams bring more humanity, clarity, and calm into their work 👉 so they can navigate complexity with confidence and create change that lasts.
We’re living through a time when the systems we’ve inherited are breaking down, leaving many leaders overextended, uncertain, and tired of pretending it’s fine. 😰
The solution isn’t to push harder.
It’s to learn to see differently.
When you learn to slow down enough to notice what’s really happening - within yourself, your team, and your system - clarity emerges.
From there, collaboration, creativity, and meaningful change become possible.
What I offer
Coaching for leaders who want to work differently
I work with thoughtful, values-driven leaders who want to bring more humanity to how they lead (without sacrificing performance, purpose, or wellbeing).
My approach blends neuroscience, systems thinking, feminist coaching, and the Enneagram to help you:
See yourself, others, and your system more clearly.
Cultivate presence and confidence in uncertainty.
Navigate conflict and change with calm authority.
Lead in a way that feels more sustainable — and more you.
Workshops and facilitation for teams ready to evolve.
I help teams move from burnout and breakdown toward clarity, connection, and collective flow.
Using frameworks from Appreciative Inquiry, the Theory U process, and systems design, we create space for real dialogue - the kind that surfaces insight, builds trust, and sparks innovation.
Whether you’re an executive team, a board, or an employee resource group, our work together helps you:
Move through stuck patterns and team tension.
Strengthen communication and shared purpose.
Create a culture of accountability and care.
Seeing differently changes everything.
My work integrates the latest research in neuroscience and leadership development with practices that cultivate awareness, compassion, and courage.
I draw on frameworks like:
Interpersonal Neurobiology: understanding how relationships shape resilience.
Systems Thinking + Theory U: learning to sense and shape the emerging future.
The Enneagram: a map for understanding personality patterns and team dynamics.
Feminist Coaching: helping leaders unlearn old conditioning and reclaim agency.
When you can see clearly, you can act wisely - even when the path ahead is uncertain. 😶🌫️
Work doesn’t have to be this hard.
You deserve to lead from clarity, not chaos - and to build teams that thrive without burning out.
