Leslie Yerkes - consultant, author 
Leslie's Catalysts is a fairly regular--every three weeks or so--newsletter focused on powerful questions, insights evoked by my experience and learning, and, what inspires me.

My goal is to be forthright about where I'm at and what's got my attention in the moment, and to provoke thoughts and reflections and creativity and growth. So, my catalysts are aimed to provide roughly five minutes of thought-provoking, mild disruption.

I hope you'll check out some of the past newsletters. If you like them, please subscribe!


Thanks! Leslie

President, Catalyst Consulting Group, consultant, author, speaker
Leslie's measure of her success as a business leader and consultant is that she applies to herself first all the consulting principles in which she engages her clients. In her work as an organizational development / change management consultant, her goal is not to be positioned as an expert but rather as a trusted advisor.

She founded Catalyst Consulting Group, Inc. in 1987.  Her philosophy is simple: People are basically good, well intentioned, courageous, and able to learn. Her job is to provide a framework in which people can draw on their own inner resources to find creative solutions.

Her consulting work has supported organizational success in diverse industries and non-profit fields with its focus on organizational change, strategic planning, and, above all, healthy sustainable organizational performance. Her expertise has a simple and profound focal point: that a person's work life best serves organizational success when it also sustains the highest purposes of the person. Leslie holds an adjunct faculty position at Weatherhead's Dively Center for Executive Education at Case Western Reserve University.


Leslie is co-author of the best selling 301 Ways to Have Fun at Work (Berrett-Koehler:1999) and the author of the Fun Works: Creating Places Where People Love to Work (Berrett-Koehler:2002;revised 2nd edition 2007) Beans: Four Principles for Running a Business in Good Times or Bad (Jossey-Bass 2003;) They Just Don't Get It, Changing Resistance Into Understanding (Berrett-Koehler: 2005;) and Beyond Kicks and Carrots, Motivation for the 21st Century (Norma Sustenere: 2008.)


Buddha Bear & Leslie "I call my newsletter Leslie's Catalysts because I enjoy being a catalyst just as much as I enjoy being catalyzed by others, by their wisdom, insight, good nature, and generosity."
