About Us

Philosophy and Approach | Experience

Blue Heron Associates partners with leaders to improve organizational performance and competitive advantage. We believe that

  • results are most sustainable when we work collaboratively with our clients
  • our clients' capacity to continue to address issues is strengthened as we facilitate greater insight and understanding of the organization, team, and self, and the context in which they each operate.
Carol Gausz, your primary contact is a strategist, leadership and team facilitator, and coach who comes to consulting only after substantial experience in the many roles held by clients - senior leader, team member, middle manager and Board member. (See Experience)

WHY BLUE HERON?

No … we're not “for the birds”.
We believe that:

  • People need to be centered and grounded to do their best work, and
  • The environment needs to be healthy and supportive to nurture exceptional performance.

We have been fortunate to spend time along beautiful waterways such as the Chesapeake Bay, places of renewal and contemplation. This is part of what enables us to bring our best to each client. The blue heron is a familiar site along the Bay. At one time though, when the Bay was neglected, the habitat became toxic for the heron and they were near extinction. Our work with leaders helps to create healthy organizational environments.
