Hi, I'm Erin!
I don’t show up to kick the can, check the box, or tell you that you’re always right.
But if you are all-in, then so am I.
Erin Sedor, Executive Advisor
I am a strategy geek, coaching advisor, and a fierce champion of heart-led leaders.
​
With more than three decades of experience under my belt navigating in high-growth organizational environments to manage strategic risk and organizational change, there's not much I haven't seen. My practice has put me alongside executives in organizations of all sizes, types, and industries - vision alignment, risk visibility, and strategic performance are always the topics at hand. Leaders who hire me are confident and excited about the journey they are on and recognize the value of thought diversity and independent perspective. They are looking for the insight they need to make meaningful and effective strategic decisions that will move the organization forward. ​

I Get the Challenges You’re Facing
My experience spans the c-suite, boardroom, as well as executive coaching and consulting. I have deep expertise in organizational development, enterprise risk, and strategy design, so I am not bound by industry or market. I love the challenge of disruption – my sweet spot is working with leaders who are going through whitewater, challenged in ways both good and bad by rapid growth and transforming business environments.
You know your business better than anyone. What I provide is fresh perspective and an unbiased analysis on how your organization operates. The things I help uncover usually come as no surprise - but how they are connected and the cumulative effect they have on the organization is often a revelation.
My value isn’t in handing you a solution on a platter – it's about rolling my sleeves up with you to reveal opportunities and challenges that impact the decisions you make both today and tomorrow.
My goal is to help you create a powerfully cohesive team with a strategic thinking discipline that challenges the status quo at every turn, creating agile, living strategy that evolves as it needs to.
I have an uncanny ability for getting to the root of a thing, cutting through the noise to find the actual cause of what's slowing down your success.
It’s my superpower.
Why I Do What I Do
The world is changing, and a new breed of leader quietly emerging across the globe. These new leaders are not only highly self-aware but recognize the holistic and entangled nature of the world we live and work in. They recognize their organization as the complex adaptive system that it is, and they understand that true agility requires every element to move in simultaneous motion (like a flock of birds) as opposed to command-and-follow hierarchy with siloed handoffs.
These leaders are driven by a deep need to contribute their energy and talent to a cause that is greater than the bottom line. They know that the growth of their people is key to building a thriving organization, and they are fearless in breaking down barriers that inhibit creativity and pathfinding at every level.
Accomplishing this requires breaking 120 years of standard business practice – and old models die hard – but this is why I show up for the work. I relish the challenge and am ready to roll my sleeves up along with you to help define and articulate purpose, growth, and evolution for you, your team, and your organization.
Organizations are not machines. If we refuse to evolve the way we think about, lead, and design them,
they simply will not survive.
