Deb's Bio

Collaboration shouldn’t drain energy—it should drive results. I help leaders and teams turn the hard work of working together into a productive, energizing force for real impact. As a social psychologist and author of Collabor(h)ate, I draw on nearly three decades of experience researching, teaching, and applying the science of human connection to reveal how people, tools, and culture shape the way we work together. A former professor and nonprofit executive, I blend truth-telling candor with practical science to show what’s possible when we do together better.
