pup tent helps leaders navigate change, manage chaos + enhance storytelling

As a leader, you are often managing multiple priorities with limited resources and little time. Creating a thoughtful communications strategy, addressing internal change or handling a surprise external crisis can be overwhelming.

Pup Tent Communications provides you with experience-driven insights and strategies to help you navigate organizational change, manage crisis, transform culture or enhance storytelling.

CAPABILITIES

THE PUP TENT ADVANTAGE


thought leadership + successful execution

While having an independent thought partner is important, blending thought with action is what I do best. My expertise includes not only devising successful communications strategies but also executing the tactics in those strategies to drive results.

personal experience + valuable hindsight

I have personal experience with company mergers and acquisitions, crisis management, and culture transformation. I know how it feels to experience change as an employee. As a communications leader, I have the hindsight to know what went well and what could have been done differently.

RELATIONSHIP BUILDING + EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

I am a relationship-builder who listens beyond what is being said. I can quickly assess the workplace climate and use my insight to influence and coach leaders on how to best respond.

just the right guide for the journey

Pup Tent Communications is committed to providing valuable solutions that fit your budget. I am based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but am available to work with organizations all over the country.

I am the ideal communications partner for:

Communicators with limited internal resources who need intermittent support

Multi-discipline leaders whose umbrella includes communications, but it is not their primary area of expertise

Small to mid-sized companies needing interim communications leadership as they conduct a search for a permanent leader
