Welcome,

I’m Noëlle

I bring light to complex conversations—so founders, leadership teams, and boards can move forward with clarity and trust.

I’m a certified mediator experienced in conflict prevention and mediation for businesses, a strategy and leadership coach and company confidant.

I work with founders, partners, boards, and leadership teams to navigate hard conversations, prevent breakdowns, and realign around shared purpose

Every business journey has its friction points: moments of misalignment, tension, or silence that slow momentum or cloud decision-making. Whether you're facing a visible conflict or just a quiet sense that something’s off, I help you bring it into the light—so you can deal with it wisely.

.

What I Bring

I combine strategic thinking with real listening, and I’m known for asking the kinds of questions that shift the room.

I believe:

  • Most answers are already inside the people I work with—my role is to bring them to light

  • The real issue’s are often the hidden expectations, unspoken assumptions, or unmet needs underneath

  • Leadership gets easier when things are clear, honest, and a little lighter

My work spans strategic resets, high-stakes mediation, co-founder realignment, post-merger integration, board evaluations, and leadership coaching. I also developed the Partner Pact framework to help teams prevent conflict before it begins..

Communication is the key to success

By facilitating and improving the communication between parties, alignment and new insights are created. Which leads to more creativity, innovation, improved relations and sustainable solutions.

Through my work I see people strive, develop and grow, both personally and with their businesses

Mediation & Conflict Navigation

When the conversation gets difficult, I help it move forward.

  • Co-founder and business partner disputes

  • Boardroom tension or misalignment

  • Post-merger integration and leadership transitions

  • High-stakes, high-impact relationships where trust needs repair

Whether things are already heated or just slightly “off,” I create space for calm, clear dialogue—and outcomes everyone can stand behind.

Strategic Alignment & Facilitation

Do you know where you’re going? Are you all going in the same direction?
I help leadership teams and boards:

  • Clarify vision, values, and priorities

  • Align around strategy using tools like the Balanced Scorecard

  • Uncover misalignments early—before they become full-blown conflict

  • Turn friction into focus

This is for businesses and teams who want to grow together, not just fast.

Leadership & Founders Coaching

Thoughtful, strategic coaching
You’re a founder, CEO, or senior leader, navigating complex decisions, relationships, or personal growth moments.

Coaching with me is:

  • Quiet space to think clearly

  • Supportive and sharp

  • Tailored to who you are as a leader and a humanNeed an external evaluator, trustee or sparring partner?

You don’t need “fixing”—you need someone who listens, reflects, and challenges you with the right questions.

The health of the co-founder relationship is the KPI that no one seems to be tracking, even though it’s inextricably tied to company performance. (EP)

Together, we can prepare your business for the future

about me

Thanks to my experience as an entrepreneur, investor and board member, I understand the language of entrepreneurs and I have seen and experienced many different conflicts. With that experience I want others to strive in their businesses and personally
