Judith C. Spear MS, CMC, BCC

Founder / Master Consultant

“People come to me in various states of angst. Sometimes they  are frustrated by the people around them. Often times they have a hunger inside of them that they just can’t seem to satisfy. I show them how to harness what they need with the strengths, needs, values, priorities of their colleagues.

 

That’s when the magic happens.” 

Judi is the founder and master consultant for both Spear-Rhodes, Ltd, her Canadian based company and RVRhodes, Inc., her US based company.

Since 1996, Judi has served more than 50,000 leaders. Judi’s expertise is found in leadership development, organizational development and executive coaching. Her experience and passion have led her to work with leaders at every level of an organization. She guides them to acquire the essential tools and skills necessary to blend understanding people and strategic thinking. These approaches are key to building a strong foundation and a strong business. Key insights are discovered through Judi’s coaching process.
