Cynthia Scott, Ph.D., M.P.H.
ChangeworksLab FOUNDER
Vision
Purpose
Action
As the Founder of Changeworks Lab, I have served as a consultant, leadership professor, organizational psychologist, board member, executive and change catalyst, to build capacity for change and transformation in individuals, teams, and organizations.
My focus has been a deep curiosity about what conditions helps people thrive, regenerate, and transform, and a conviction that this capacity could be built in individuals and organizations. This sparked my research and writing about burnout prevention, personal and organizational resilience, and development of agile and change capable leaders.
About Cynthia
I am and executive coach and strategic consultant who work with a broad range of values-based leaders to create the clarity and courage to stand in their own truth in their personal and professional lives.
My fieldwork in India as an anthropologist led me to appreciate and value the creativity of global cultural diversity and community resilience.
My practice as a psychologist taught me to listen deeply to unlock hidden patterns that block insight and action.
I enjoy seeing people exercise values aligned action in their lives and work.
My research and experience have led me to author 14 books, design programs, assessment tools and models to guide and inspire people to become creative sources of resilience for their teams and organizations.
