The Core Action Team
What’s in a name anyway? Sometimes everything…
Just over 15 years ago, when we started our leadership coaching work we chose the name Core Action Associates. Our most centered authentic, and powerful actions as leaders come directly from our core — so we are dedicated to helping leaders clarify, connect with, and build upon the power emanating from their core selves.
