The Re-United States
Joan Wangler, Master Certified Coach
We step on
Each other’s viewpoints
Watch only
Our preferred news
Decry the other’s intellect
And sing our sorry blues
Meanwhile people are dying
Our country is in decline
We forgot how to
Be civil
As the months
Roll on by.
This is hardly
The United States
The one I pledged to
As a child
With hand on my heart
I realize
Now is the time for
The Re-United States.
About:
Joan Wangler, ICF Master Certified Coach
President, EDIN (Each Day Is New) Associates
Senior Leadership Coach and Faculty Member at The George Washington Center for Excellence in Public Leadership.
I’m a senior leadership coach known for holistic leadership coaching, a process of working with people that leaves them feeling more competent and fulfilled so that they can make a better contribution to their organization and find meaning in what they are doing. Some clients call me a “dream catcher.”
My passion is launching and facilitating leadership communities of practice such as the Creative Learning Group (CLG) initiative with leaders at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center and the Goddard Civility Collaborative. The primary focus of these communities is on building and sustaining emotionally intelligent, innovative coaching and mentoring organizational cultures to deliver outstanding results.
I coach senior leaders facing complex personal and organizational transition challenges with great heart, wisdom, and innovative thinking. I was one of the original designers of NASA’s award-winning Leadership Alchemy program and co-created the Environmental Protection Agency’s Transformational Leadership Conversations, an organization-wide community of practice promoting leadership conversations that inspire hope, possibilities, and action at all levels.
